The Strike Is On! The Boot & Shoe Workers’ Union
“Wear Union Stamped Shoes” declared the Boot & Shoe Workers’ Union, whose slogan you can see on this pocket mirror in the Taft Museum of Art's latest special exhibition, "Walk This Way | Footwear from the Stuart Weitzman Collection of Historic Shoes." This mirror, along with a shoe from the early 1900s, sparked the inspiration for my latest Museum Musings.
