Vintage Converse Chuck Taylor All Star, Blue Tab (NM, IOB, inserts)

Description

Incredibly rare to find a pair of these with all of the original packaging in-tact
Obviously, they were worn briefly at one point in time. There's some minor signs of this wear, but most of the cosmetic imperfections are a result of age.
All of the original stitching is in-tact and in good shape.
Some minor scuffing on the inner midsoles near the toe-cap.
Bottom of the midsoles (where they meet the ground) have some rough edges.
Converse tabs on the heels have some wear on the lettering. It's still mostly legible, but there is wear.
Print on the insoles is legible. There's wear on the insides, though minimal.
Glue marks around much of the rubber portions, as they were a bit sloppy when they made these originally.
Otherwise, they're in excellent vintage condition. There is discoloration, marks, scuffs, etc. They're around 60 years old; that'll happen to anything.
All of the packaging is in excellent condition, as is the box.
Since there's only 12 slots for photos, I'm limited on sharing physical details.
These are in collectors condition, and it's clear that they've been in storage for 95% of their lifetime.
There are no issues beyond what you'd expect - for vintage Converse of this age, these are nearly pristine.
Since they're vintage, I can make no guarantees about the structural integrity of the rubber on these -- I assume no liability after they've been worn.

Please refrain from sending me messages that don't pertain to your interest in purchasing these. I don't have the time or care to stroll down memory lane.
This is one pair of a couple dozen vintage Converse that I'll be listing. I would be open to considering a bulk-lot sale for businesses or collectors once I get them all listed. Follow my shop for further updates.
