    My sister bought this bag from an antique shop in the 1960's
    I'm presuming it might have been hand made in the 1940's when materials to make a lady's handbag might have been scarce. It has an Aero square-ended zip in the lining and some Roman numerals which might be connected to a previous use for the wood. The purse is cleverly made and with an up to date lining would be a great conversation piece. I'm curious if anyone in the Guild would be able to shed some light?

    Welcome to the forums - if you can post images of the handbag it will be very helpful.

    In my defense, when I click on the picture symbol to upload a photo it only gives you a URL option whereas the reply gives me the option to upload the photos from my desktop.
