| No. 9 Shoeshine Box
"My Dad always taught me that you can tell a lot about a man by the way he keeps his shoes. His teaching was solidly reinforced by my stint in the U. S. Coast Guard Boot Camp, so I admit to being a shoe care fanatic," says the Colonel. Our classic shoeshine box should remind you of the one your grandfather used. This furniture-quality box is not a piece you want to hide in the closet. Handmade of American poplar by a local furniture maker, the box features dovetailed joints, an elevated footrest and a sliding top secured by a post closure. Inside the box is a 6 1/2", 100% horsehair shining brush, a horsehair polish dauber brush, black polish, brown polish and two soft shining cloths. The leather trim on top of the kit finishes the look and includes a brass oval plate, which may be personalized with three initials. 10"L x 7 1/2"W x 6 1/2"H. |
