Looking for a confirmation on dating here and a plea for any adverts for K shoes if you have them or have seen them.
I keep doubting myself on dating these because the K shoes brand label doesn't match the period adverts I have for the 40's & 50's which are the familiar 'brush stroke' effect K shoes logo. This thin straight font appears to be earlier to me, (the only previous ad I have is for 1910 which is a more roman looking font so there's a big gap) but I'm not sure the design matches an earlier dating. At this moment in time I'm going for early to mid 40's when alot of my adverts show extensive punch detail in lace up heels, some walled toes and stacked leather heels though I'm aware this popular style might have continued on past then.
(just noticed, these say K shoe, and not K shoes, do you think it's possible they were two companies?)
