Cowboy Boots

Did you see these 1940s Little's out on that popular auction site? (I don't usually out active auctions, but at the opening price I don't think I'm busting anyone's bargain)

Nice old Nocona's but too small for me.

Yeah, Bob I saw those and I think you're right about the price. The shafts on those boots aren't far from becoming dust.

I sold and shipped off a couple pair this week. Every time I think I'm done buying, someone posts something like this.

That's a nice color and I like the way the vamp and heel counter are cut where they meet on those old Eldorado's.

Thanks!! All of my El Dorados (6 pairs) are like that - I love 'em.

A newer pair of Dan Post boots. I prefer a little wider boot but these feel pretty good.
If I’m not mistaken Dan Post is made by Justin now?

Good looking pair. Dan Post is put out by McRae Industries which is the parent Co. of Laredo, John Deere boots and some others.

Another pair of vintage El Dorado boots. This is only pair I have with a rounded toe (although I used to have a pair with a somewhat squared toe - the only El Dorado's I didn't like).

I always enjoyed the Nocona Boots advertising from the late ‘70’s and ‘80’s.

The art work is amazing.

It really is. Wish I had hung onto my boxes, even after the boots are gone. HJ has posted this before but did you notice the inscription on every ring?

“LET’S RODEO.”

I've noticed that before.

I've always kept this because it brings back memories for me. The shoe/boot shop in our small town had the machine that X-rays kid's feet to check the growth of the bones until someone decided exposure to radiation wasn't good for young kids. I can remember standing there seeing the bones in my feet.

Remember sizing my feet the same way at J. C. Penney. Maybe that's why I have bunions.
