    Description

    Vintage 1960s Johnston & Murphy's Rogers Peet Advertising Shoehorn Bottle Opener.
    This pocket sized bottle opener is shaped like a shoe horn and was used as advertisement for Johnston & Murphy Shoe Company (J&M) in Newark, New Jersey in the 1960s, and Rogers Peet company.
    Material is steel and length is 3.5 inches.
    A bit of history: J&M began as a shoe company in 1850, but became Johnston & Murphy in 1882. It is still in operation as a shoe and clothes company today. Rogers Peet
    was a men's clothing company founded in 1874.
    Some information on the internet about the company's advertising and this shoe horn suggests that the bottle opener can double as a pocket-sized shoe horn as well.
    It is in good vintage condition.
    This is a perfect item for someone who loves 1960s vintage items, shoes, New Jersey, has a connection to the J&M store or Rogers Peet stores, and/or is looking for a unique bottle opener.
    Pet-free & smoke-free home.
