16th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest The American Experience
A portrait of a sock monkey
The sock monkey's history goes back to the depression of the 1930s, when American crafters first used the Nelson Knitting Company's "Rockford Red Heel." The sock monkey continues to be an American icon.
