This “shoe dressing” appears to have been produced only in 1888 and 1889 by the Royal Parisian Lustre Co-operative Manufacturing Company at 410 Sansome Street. The company president was G. B. Bailey and its secretary was Albert G. Daw-Kerrell. Short-lived products such as this one help archaeologists to work out when the feature where they were found was filled in, such as the privy at 38 Natoma Street that contained this bottle.
