Metal Detecting
Hi everyone,
This afternoon after work I decided to go detecting at an early 1900s homesite. Found a few cool things around a trash area. The old plastic card surprised me when I got back home to clean it. I don't know if the name on the bottom left corner was the guy that worked for the company or what but it's pretty neat.
Thank you for looking!

The Brown Shoe Company is still in business, but it is now called Caleres, and they also own Naturalizer and Dr. Scholl's, among other brands.
Don......
That's amazing that they are still going to this day. Thank you!
 

Thank you Gare!
Back in the 1950's a pair of Buster Brown kid's shoes cost $5 and an adult pair was $10. One of Dr. Suess books talked about their dad's ten-dollar shoes. Real leather.
