100 to 1 Shot When you hear a fellow kicking about elk skin shoes it’s a hundred to one shot that he is not wearing a pair of mine. There are now about 35 imitations on the market, some pretty good too, and a lot that aint worth much. I could sell some of these and make more money on the first pair but you would’nt come back and we’ed both be looser. I sell Mens at $3.00 and $3.50 Charlie Voglewede The Shoe Seller
