Avion Report post Posted April 18, 2015 Mom also showed me these two purses she bought in 1967...she remembers paying $65 per purse, which is probably equivalent to $275- $300 in today's faux money. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Avion Report post Posted April 18, 2015 She said she carried that hippy bag 10 yrs. as it was her favorite purse. I told her I was going to borrow it to make a pattern. It's just an open raw leather bag inside, but she said that's what she liked about it... Everything was easy to find. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LoneWolf1973 Report post Posted April 19, 2015 Looks good...that's what I tell people about Wal-Mart stuff (1 yr usually) compared to 10+ yrs handmade. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
