    I cant find any information on these-- I picked them up from an estate sale. Ive never seen anything like them before- they do have a green bottom.

      Bronzing Baby Shoes was typical back in the 50-60 era. These were someones baby shoes and they would be sent out to be bronzed. They still do it to this day.

      So, would you think the book ends are rare? Or something alot of people did back then?

      Common, I have seen hundreds over the last 30 yrs or so. It was a Big thing back in the day, People don't do it as much now but there are companies that still bronze baby shoes online.
