There is a reason why “Queen Quality” Shoes are pre
ferred above all others by women of discrimination and taste.
To ordinary shoes they are as a Worth gown is to an ordinary
dress. Only a shoemaking genius can impart their “chic” and
style and marvelous fit. Such shoes could be produced in
small quantities only at an extravagant price. “Queen Quality”
methods bring them to you at prices no higher than you pay
for ordinary shoes.
Very Special.
