I played that game too… had forgotten all about it! That was a great game. Now there's probably a computer version, but when I played, it was a game board. That's right, isn't it???
And was there also a TV show?

I had 2 BFs with long hair - no man buns though
DH used to have very short pink hair at one time, he looked great, no one used to mess with him either.

In our house, we say that once you have three of anything, it becomes a "collection." And then you have to dust it, count it, track it, and so on. So unless we're really serious about something, we try to stop at two!
Of course, handbags and Hermès scarves do NOT stop at two! Of COURSE they're a collection! (And Mr. PG absolutely understands this.)
I'm doing brown bags in 2 parts as you may be able to tell I love brown bags:
H Bolide 35 in Peau Porc - one of my most used Hs - I waited a lifetime for this bag, I was lucky to be able to find one (actually I think it found me).
Vintage exotics - I sold the 1940s Florida alligator (wish I hadn't) and the 1970s croc at the back but still have 1960s croc and 1970s Mappin and Webb lizard convertible clutch/shoulder bag
Gucci web-stripe travel half-moon (this was the original 1969 size although this was a later reissue) and Bamboo-ring, Web-stripe, Half-moon.
I960s buckle bag
1920s Art Deco croc clutch with fold-down handle
1970s exotic skin patchwork

I have a solitaire program on my desktop that has Concentration as one of the games. I remember the TV show!
Ooh, I love that last one. I used to really be into quilting so that one speaks to me.
Lovely. Lovely brown bags! Thank you for sharing, and i love a good croc bag!
+1
I have no problems with a man bun. My youngest DS has long hair, and he owns it!
Ooooo - glad you’re doing this in 2 parts... I might faint otherwise!
So many beautiful bags - the Bolide and that patchwork bag - love!
I have more brown bags than I thought. Brown isn't one of my favorite colors, although there are few shades I really like. The vintage bags I have in brown because that is the color I found them in and I like it better than black.
I'll try to do this in age order.
1. Coach Bonnie Cashin Carry arm tote. This is a very rare bag from the 1960s.
2. Coach Bonnie Cashin pocket shoulder bag, also extremely rare from the 1960s, although probably not as old as the first one.
3. Coach suede watermelon tote, made in the early 1970s. The style is not rare but it is extremely rare in suede.
4. Coach ranch bag from the early 1990s.
5. Dooney & Bourke AWL satchel, probably from the 1990s.
6. Coach Bleecker large flap, 2007
7. Coach Bleecker woven pocket hobo, 2008
8. Coach Legacy duffle, 2012

Tooooooo funny! Does he know?
The last one… the 1970s "sunburst" patchwork… oh my! I'd love to know the story behind it, though I have a feeling you've shared it with us in a previous year (physical distancing is melting my brain). Is this one that's been in your family? Or did you find it more recently? It is GORGEOUS.
And I love the pairing of your Bolide with the H Plumes scarf. Perfection.
Same!
Thank you!
interesting take on the bolide, I don't blame you on not listing it .sales are dismal at the moment..I'm curious in your experience what made the bolide impractical to use?
Congratulations on the bag sale!!! I think your current listings will sell soon!LOL!
IKR?! Ugh! It was worse when I was pregnant. I had a belly and thighs and butt. Everything was just big. I looked like the Michelin Man.
Sales really are terrible.I feel lucky I sold the one bag. I have little hope that the jewelry and Chanel tote I have listed will sell any time soon.
I had a Prada bag that was shaped like the Bolide but a closer to the LV Alma. I adored that bag but it just didn’t work for me. I’m hesitant to wear logoed bags professionally. But it was too big for what I carry in my private life. And the top handle was a little fussy. With no strap and it’s size, it needed its own chair when I went out. Lol! But, gosh. I loved that bag and miss it.
Beautiful bags! my favourites are the croc bags
lovely bags!
Happy Easter to all those who celebrate! last week, I did a virtual colour analysis, to find out what's my season, and I got my results today. I'm not surprised, as naturally I was drawn to those colours when I added pieces to my wardrobe anyway. Turns out i'm a true winter.
Beautiful collection, @whateve . Your Bonnie Cashin bags, especially… they are in amazing condition. Did you find them that way, or did you restore?
Thank you! I think I washed the suede one. I can't remember if I did anything other than conditioning to the second one. The first one was given to me by another tpfer. That one is lined. I wouldn't want to take a chance doing much to it, but it is already in good condition. Most vintage Coach bags last forever as long as they aren't completely abused.
