  1. Thankyou for getting these images up. This is exactly the kind of bag I am working on. Would you happen to know what make or style of sewing machine back in the 1960s that may of been used to sew such thick quantities of leather? I am trying to gather equipment old or new to make bags like these so any help would be of benefit to me.
  2. I am trying my hand at putting together a 1960s Bona Allen leather mail bag and i would really like to know if anyone has any knowledge on how they were made. The type of leather used back then and how they were stitched? Some of the leather, especially on the spine of the bag which is almost 1/2" thick! It looks machined rather than by hand but i'm guessing. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
