FOR THAT CHRISTMAS GIFT LIST IN 1920

The Buster Brown story began in 1878 when George Warren
Brown turned the city of St. Louis, Missouri into the center
of the shoe manufacturing world.

The Brown Shoe Co. really took off when a sales executive at
Brown, John A. Bush, acquired the name and character rights
to the Buster Brown comic strip character in 1904, and the
Buster Brown shoe company was born (the Brown last name
was purely a happy coincidence).

The shoes became instant hits, and the legend grew stronger
with each decade.
