I had this circa 1940s-50s handbag a while ago that had similar pits on the surface of the skin--you can see that they are only on the larger scales of the front/pocket section. It is stamped inside as "Genuine Alligator", if that helps?

I hope my sympathy for Jonathan's challenges with low-balling buyers at the Toronto show wasn't taken the wrong way!
It can be so frustrating--as I am sure all vintage dealers know!--when the time, effort and love that we put into sourcing our inventory and preparing it for sale feels...
Glad you did OK, Jonathan. Cheapskate buyers can be so annoying, but at least you sold plenty of stuff!
