I was recently at G-Dub with a good friend, scoping out every single aisle and item as usual when I came upon my new love. It was beaming in a ray of light, I swear straight from heaven. I walked, no ran into the light.....grabbed it by the handle and hugged it. Yes, I hugged it. I had been searching for over a year now for the perfect one and I had found it. It was a 1940 vintage OSHKOSH suitcase with the famous "chief" stripes! Below, is an original ad I found on the web the describes my little lovely....
oooohhhh the red and gold......
The handle and piping are all leather....
It was even monogrammed in gold by the original owner! The keys and luggage tag still attached and the garment bag and original hangers inside. Be still my heart! I'm going to make a fun display in my entry with it for the holidays and then who knows! The sky is the limit!
Thanks for visiting!

How cool is that?!? What an exciting find! Now, if you could keep an eye open for a Louis Vuitton for me, that would be GREAT!
ReplyDeleteI will certainly do that. You realize of course, you'll have to come to my house to visit it! lol!
