Ltd shoe catalogue from the mid-20th century, featuring an array of stylish and practical boots for men. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history of this renowned British footwear company. The catalogue pages are filled with meticulously curated designs, each boot exuding an air of sophistication and durability. The boots come in various shades of brown, from rich, deep hues to lighter, more subtle tones. Laces crisscross the front, adding a classic touch to these lace-up boots. The prices, displayed prominently next to each item, are given in shillings and pence, a common currency during that era. This detail adds an intriguing layer of historical context, reminding us of the economic climate of the time. W. Barratt & Co.

The company's advertising efforts, as seen in this catalogue, aimed to appeal to the working-class population, promising them comfortable and stylish footwear at reasonable prices. This photograph is not only a testament to the enduring appeal of boots as a fashion staple but also a fascinating window into the past, providing us with a glimpse into the world of mid-20th century trade and consumer culture.
