Trade Card: A. Feldman, Boots and Shoes, Pittstown, Pennsylvania

This trade card advertises A. Feldman's boot and shoe store located at 135 North Main Street in Pittstown, Pennsylvania.

The text on the front indicates the store's address and highlights the quality of the boots and shoes: "STANDARD SCREW FASTENED BOOTS AND SHOES...NO EQUAL...NATIONAL CARD." The back of the card (second image) displays a full advertisement, with a depiction of a shoe alongside additional text, showcasing a broader range of products or perhaps further emphasizing the store's commitment to quality.
