    "Too good to use..."

    That may be something different. More a sign of respect and status of the guest than actually attempting to limit the use for safe keeping.Something done by heads of state and royal houses.

    Attention: Johnston & Murphy footwear owners

    AE are worth the extra cost if only for the fact that they can be refurbished at the factory on the original last with original materials. For me, that's a must.

    Attention: Johnston & Murphy footwear owners

    Who has Hotel recommendations for Chicago and New Orleans?

    The Pump Room in Chicago is a must for Golden Era fans. It is located in what was the Ambassador East (since rebranded) where loads of Hollywood stars stayed when switching trains when traveling from NY to LA. Bogie and Bacal honeymooned there. A myriad of photos of famous guests adorn the walls.
