ca. 1937. Display window at Leed's Shoes, circa 1937. Curved glass, neon signs, cut out profile of a woman's face, display of shoes, purses and accessories. Neon and regular signage for "Whites," "All the Favorite Whites." Roy W. Oscarson, manager. This was possibly a display for Easter, as white shoes were the custom between Easter and Labor Day. Leeds opened on Broadway in February of 1937, leasing both the first floor and the mezzanine in the building. The Tacoma store was the 4th in the Northwest and the 30th on the Pacific coast. It employed 15 individuals. (T.Times 2/26/1937, pg. 5)
