Condition:
It is in fair vintage condition. The exterior shows a lot of travel wear
with scuffs and scratches. The leather would benefit from a conditioning. The
leather finish on the edges is worn through in spots. The zippers are a bit
stiff but they are functional and in good shape with no tears in the canvas
attachment strips. The interior shows wear and tear and has a slight musty
vintage luggage smell. The handles are solid and secure with no splits. The
pictures are the best indicator as to condition, please use the zoom feature
and check them out.
Dimensions:
It is about 18" long by about 12" wide by about 12" tall (not including the
handles).
