Dear Mr. + Mrs. Cline
I just want to thank you for remembering me on my birthday. I really appreciated it very much. A gift like that never fails to come in handy, anywhere. Thanks ever so much.
We have been having a swell trip. Greatly enjoyed Florida. It’s a paradise for people who like sun and warmth and I’m one who does.
I hope to see you when I get back home again.
Sincerely, Robert Wadlow

Welcome to Wadlow's Shoes, the best place on the web to see shoes owned by Wadlow himself! 👟
The IRL Wadlow's Shoes was operated by Harold from January 1941 to mid-1944. The logo below comes from the 1942 Alton High School Tatler yearbook (and was re-used for the '43 edition)
