Beautiful footwear on display at the shoe museum I discovered in Mexico City last year.. This group is from the 1930’s. Enjoy!
Looking at old magazine and catalog ads, as well as when I observed these shoe displays, it was evident how much the styles slopped over from decade to decade or would repeat again several decades later.
As always, it’s in the little details, the quality of materials and the workmanship that the truth comes out . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

There’s a shoe museum in Mexico City? I guess I should be altruistic and donate the CHARLES Jordan rounded toe pumps (circa 1930s & 40s) my maternal grandmother left me when she died. They don’t fit me (she had small, narrow feet & I have the wide feet of my father’s family). I’ve been storing them in a climate-controlled storage unit for, well, all my adult life, not really knowing what to do with them, other than that I don’t want to part with them.

Not parting with them is your best instinct! This shoe museum is privately owned by a man and his family who had a shoe store for decades. It’s a lovely place, but they don’t need your grandmother’s shoes. What a treat to have those. Treasure them!
