while i was making a comment on your flicr of this photo, i stumbled across a little history behind this shoe company.

like this photo suggests, Int'l Shoe Comapny should have an impact long outlasting it's ediface...

My mother sold City Club and Velvet Step shoes at Pinner's Shoe Store in the 1950s in Belhaven, North Carolina. I think these shoes were made by International. They were quality shoes, very well made. Foreign shoes at any price on today's market don't begin to measure up to the feel and fit of these shoes.

My grandfather and grandmother worked for International Shoe Co. at their plant in Poplar Bluff, MO. The factory is where they met. My grandfather always tells stories about his days making shoes.

My great uncle was president or chairman of international shoe during wwII. Am trying to get information as to when he was active with the company. NAME WAS BYRAN A. GRAY

i have to 'work' for International Shoe in a theater
play I am doing. Can you tell me more about it, please?
