This pair of buruial shoes came from a defunct NY funeral home. They were used for paupers who couldn't afford real shoes for their funeral attire or when disease kept the deceased's foot from fitting in their own shoes. They are laced in the back for easy dressing and have pins inside to hold the shoe on the foot. They are a very attractive lavender color and will come in their original box. (PAUL BURIAL SHOE Patened May 23, 1916)
