Antique Victorian Boots Ladies High-Top Side Button Up 8 Straps Heeled Shoes VTG
Antique, Victorian / Edwardian era women's boots. Circa 1900.
Off-white in color. These have a lot of what I'm assuming is shoe polish on them, and it wasn't applied very well or evenly.
Strappy high-tops! Eight straps across each, which button at the outsides.
Stamped on the insides of each are the numbers 36-00 44904. The right shoe also has "McNichol" written in faded red / pink ink.
Unknown modern size equivalent, but they measure approximately 9.25" in length and 2-7/8" at the widest.
Pre-owned, antique. Terrible application of the shoe polish. Other condition issues include discoloration, cuts in the leather, frays, wear to the soles, etc. No missing buttons.
I acquired these from a museum of Victorian fashion in Tombstone, Arizona when the owner closed the museum for his retirement.
