A great set of turn of the downhill wood skis.  Their unique styling includes the "Diamond" shaped footplate and copper rivets at the tips.  Of all the skis we've seen, I truly cannot remember another set with this distinctive Diamond pattern.   These were crafted before the Paul Simon song - "Diamonds on the soles of her Shoes", but it may be an appropriate theme-song - if one-of-a-kind vintage skis need a theme-song.
