Scope and Contents note
two, each showing a woman being fitted by a shoe salesman or cobbler; one copyrighted 1901 by B. L. Singley, published by Keystone View Co., captioned "Don't Get Above Your Business" (cat. #433); the other apparently from an earlier negative, although also mounted on a warped card, but unidentified. In the Keystone view, the man has a tape measure around the woman's leg above the ankle, and in the other picture, the tape is around the woman's foot. Both images are intended to be somewhat naughty or provocative, indicating the low humor which typifies some stereographs
