Until the contrary is proved, this striking "fish line" from Albanese is probably the first Fish Shoe copy since the original one (1955, André Perugia).

FOOTNOTE
A different version of the fish-shoe was showcased at the exhibition Roman Inspirations (Artisanal Intelligence/AltaRoma, August 2014) and it sports a heel that predates Roger Vivier's globe heel (1966). Or is it a replica?? Oh well, the more we learn, the less we know.
