THIS IS A FABULOUS VINTAGE PIECE OF GENTLEMEN'S HAND LUGGAGE LIKELY TO HAVE BEEN BROUGHT BACK AS A TOURIST FROM NORTH AFRICA.  IT HAS A CENTRAL PANEL OF REAL CROCODILE AND LEATHER EVERYWHERE ELSE - DARK BROWN LEATHER OUTER AND LIGHT TAN LEATHER LINING.  IT HAS PLAITED TABS TO PULL THE ZIP AND AS DECORATION TO EITHER END OF THE BAG.  THE HANDLES HAVE A PLAITED FINISH.

IT IS A REALLY CLASSY PIECE OF VINTAGE LUGGAGE FROM THE 30s OR 40s.

THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH THE CONDITION IS PART OF THE STITCHING ON THE ZIP HAS PERISHED.  I COULD HAND SEW IT BUT HAVE NOT AT PRESENT. THE WINNING BIDDER SHOULD CONTACT ME TO SPECIFY WHETHER HE WANTS ME TO DO THAT REPAIR BEFORE DISPATCH.

THE STITCHING DOES NOT GO THROUGH ALL OF THE CROCODILE AT THE BOTTOM OF ONE SIDE - THAT IS HOW IT ALWAYS HAD BEEN.  PRESUMABLY THE CROC WAS TOO THICK TO SEW THROUGH.

IT MEASURES IN INCHES (CMS):

SIDE TO SIDE: 20(51)

TOP TO BOTTOM: 12.25(31)

DEPTH OF GUSSET: AT BOTTOM: 8.5(22), AT TOP: 7(18)

PRICE INCLUDES FREE P&P (WHICH MAY BE SIGNED FOR IF THE FINAL PRICE IS ABOVE THE ORDINARY POSTAGE INSURANCE LIMITS)

WE DO NOT HAVE A GENERAL RETURNS POLICY BUT WILL BE HAPPY AMICABLY TO RESOLVE PROBLEMS.
