 Shop Sign in Shape of a Woman's Shoe

These are two illustrations of wooden shop signs.
The women's shoe appears to be split wood.
Maybe it was a drawing of a real sign rather than a proposal design for a sign to be ordered.
Both men and women's shoes had buttons on the side, and these can be seen in the drawings.
