If the shoe fits… a great photograph depicting a time when shopping was less clicking and more visual to the passing customer.
Take a look at the photograph entitled “First the Shoes: 1941“:
July 1941. “Detroit, Michigan. Head of the art department with new model at the Crowley-Milner department store.” Booting from the desktop. Large format nitrate negative by Arthur Siegel, Office of War Information.

About Jeffrey S. Buck
I'm currently a Project Manager at Cypress Partners, LLC in Bloomfield Hills, Mich. I graduated from Wayne State University in 2008 with a B.A. in Journalism. Looking to broaden my view of the world, I spent a semester abroad studying at the University of Salford, a Greater Manchester University in England. I enjoy doing an array of activities, including following Detroit sports teams, SCUBA diving, traveling, reading, playing tennis, hand-written letters and going to the movies.
I am the co-founder of the Woodward Spine, a blog about Detroit and its surrounding communities. The Woodward Spine aims to inform its readers about relevant news and events through creative and informative posts in these core areas: news, opinion, entertainment, history, sports and development. The Woodward Spine serves the tri-county metro Detroit area, concentrating mainly on the communities that lie along the Woodward corridor.
