Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Shoe-fitting fluoroscopes, also Pedoscopes, were x-ray fluoroscope machines installed in shoe stores from the 1920s until about the 1960s in the United States (by which time they were prohibited), and into the mid-1970s in the United Kingdom. In the UK, they were known as Pedoscopes, after the company based in St. Albans that manufactured them. Fluoroscopes were also used in shoe stores in continental Europe. A fluoroscope was a metal construction approximately 4 feet (1.2 m) high in the shape of an upside-down tea cup, with steps for a child to ascend. The child would then place his or her feet in the opening provided and while remaining in a standing position, look through a viewing porthole at the top of the fluoroscope down at the x-ray view of the feet and shoes. Two other viewing portholes on either side enabled the parent and a sales assistant to observe the child''s toes being wiggled to show how much room for the toes there was inside the shoe.
