Condition Report
Bag is in a poor overall condition with signs of significant wear. The leather trim is heavily worn throughout but is particularly badly worn at the base corners. The leather at the base of the top handle has split at either end. There is also a split within the leather handle itself and has is misshapen. Believe the top handle to have been repaired previously as there is additional stitching to the centre of the handle edges. The khaki toile canvas has also split along the edges of the leather in arears throughout the bad exterior. The central stitching between the two interior side pockets has become unstitched halfway down the central seam. The overall condition of this bag is poor and would benefit from being professionally restored. Heat stamp L in a circle, circa 1982. Is without maker's dust bag.
