DAISY AND BUTTON BABY BOOTIE (AKA) by Duncan, George & Sons (Pittsburgh-PA, Company Operated: 1874-1891), c1886 Introduced
NOTE: Sid Lethbridge 2020: ref Monograph 94 WVMAG by Tom and Neila Bredehoft pp14-15. They conclude that it is an unrecorded Duncan product and give supporting documentation. Reproduced by Fenton, the significant differences can be seen in the comparison image in the listing. The addition of "Daisy & Button" to the AKA is by the database team to distinguish this bootie from similar novelties.
NOTE: The perfume insert may have been separately sourced from or by the perfumer.
NOTE: known in clear, blue, amber, canary, old gold.
NOTE: Similar piece sold by AA Imports, has a more closed vamp opening.
