A classic example of Bear paw shape snowshoes.  Thick raw hide lacing and stout white ash frames combine to make a workhorse snowshoe.  This particular set is a beautiful oval shape with dark chocolate leather bindings. This set is in good condition and could be still used today.  We'd suggest you use these as wall decor in a mountain home.
