bisque with inmold running pigs with clover tails. The plain treatment of the back or non-display side was a common
feature of so called "cabinet" shoes, as the items were designed to be seen from behind the glass door of a curio.

to back of hat; L shoe with nick to snout & rim, neither distracting. Item #193SL&R, Price
