Look What I Found..A Snake and A Lizard.

Remember the Palizzio handbag I asked about last week and we decided it was probably snake (or snake, eel combo).

Well, I found some Palizzio lizard shoes to match, both from the 60s! Forgot I had these shoes. Sold them last year but had a non paying bidder.

you see - if you hadn't had a NPB you wouldn't be able to list them both together. i think fate is pretty kind sometimes!

Thanks! I wish I could find out more about Palizzio.

Well, Palizzio was around at least as early as 1955 from this article about Nacogdoches, TX, and with the other shoes the store carried one can kind of guess at a price range. I wonder if Jonathan knows all about them.

FIFTY YEARS AGO, July 10-16, 1955 ..

..Schmidt's announced an expansion to build “A Newer And Greater Schmidt's” with the addition of an exclusive shoe store to features such lines as Palizzio, Mademoiselle and Daniel Green, and Stride-Rite for children. And while that was under way, everything else was one-half off.


So maybe info can be pieced together as it is found.
