Vintage Esquire Boot Polish Pure Horse Hair Brush Kit

Vintage Esquire Boot Polish Pure Horse Hair Brush Kit - Shoe Shine Kit. This complete kit includes two large pure horsehair brushes, two cans of Esquire polish, and everything else shown in the photos. Made in the USA, the kit features a genuine leather case crafted in England. The history of Esquire dates back to the Great Depression when Sam and Albert Abrams, both chemists and entrepreneurs from Brooklyn, New York, acquired the struggling Knomark Manufacturing Company in Williamsburg. In 1938, they revitalized the brand, making it synonymous with quality shoe care products. This vintage Esquire leather shoe shine kit from the 1970s is not only functional but also a lovely addition to any collection. The leather case has withstood the test of time, showcasing remarkable durability and vintage charm. Although the polish has been used and is no longer suitable for use, the kit itself remains a fantastic piece of history. It's perfect for display or as a thoughtful gift for anyone who appreciates classic accessories.
