Only a portion of the original lable remains...showing the second word of the makers name as 'Cal', next line _e__es, and final, ___adena. Bears the earmark of Heidi Schoop, but I cannot say for sure... This little gem appears to have been made in the mid to late 1940's, in my estimation. The details in the mold (folds in the 'shoe', etc.) certainly point to that era. Lovely little 'bootie' with 'lacing' in and out around the 'top' of the boot. A bow tie done in rose and blue (Heidi Schoop liked this color palette) with a boquette of 'posies' in rose and blue, accented with yellow centers and dark rose and blue dots surround the 'eye'. Two shades of green make up the leaf and accents on the stems.

| this is a charming piece! Measures 3" tall x 4-1/16" long x 1-3/4" wide. This is the type that you must break to access the $$$. A long ago method, since replaced with rubber/plastic/vinyl plugs. |
