A vintage hand-painted plaster souvenir figurine, also known as chalkware, modeled in the shape of a low-top shoe or slipper. The piece features a yellow-painted body with reddish-brown accents on the molded laces and tongue. Around the base, the name CHATTANOOGA SHOE-SHOE is rendered in large, silver-painted raised letters, serving as a punning reference to the 1941 song Chattanooga Choo Choo. The item includes a small notch on the rim, indicating its likely intended function as an ashtray or small trinket dish. The side of the shoe above the base is incised with COPYRIGHT 1942 BY JOHN LEONARD MARLOW, while the opposite side is incised with CHATTANOOGA TENN.
