A cash-only shop that charged one fixed price for every pair set this store apart from the haggling and credit accounts common in its day. Issued as Poster No. 5, the notice belonged to a numbered series meant to catch the eye of passersby and announce boots and shoes for sale. Fixed-price retailing spread through the late 1800s as merchants sought simpler, faster sales and fewer disputes over cost. It offers a useful glimpse of how ordinary families once shopped for footwear.
