This piece features a beautifully detailed illustration of a woman in historical attire standing in front of a building, a likely nod to the famous actress Nell Gwynne, whose name was used to evoke elegance and English heritage. Beneath the pictography appears the wording 'Nell Gwynne Shoes' and the memorable slogan 'A Perfect Fit for Every Foot'.
A wonderful example of early 20th-century retail advertising, this showcard would originally have been displayed in a shoe shop window or at the counter to promote the Nell Gwynne brand.
Perfect for collectors of vintage advertising or adding charm and character to your home or retail space.
