There is an auction at Drouot on Monday called Fourrures, Mode et accessoires de la mode. I checked the Hermes items and there are some carrés of course, but also two Kellys (both in crocodile)
1) Lot n° 183
HERMES Paris
Sac "Kelly" 29 cm en crocodile noir, fermoir, attaches plaqué or, rabat chiffré M.C, cadenas, clefs.
estimated at 3000-3500 euros
2) Lot n° 291
HERMES Paris
Sac "Kelly" 35 cm en crocodile havane, fermoir, attaches plaqué or (manque cadenas et clefs).
estimated at 4500-4800 euros
There is also a "Totobag" estimated at 200-250 euros, it's a canvas and leather bag.
The exhibition is on saturday at Drouot and on Monday morning, and the auction itself starts at 2PM.
I won't go because I am not on the market for bags but I thought I should let you know. The next Hermes only auction is in June! That one I won't miss!
If you are not in Paris I guess you can call your auction house and they can bid from abroad... Unfortunately there are no pics of the bags yet on the website.
