As the first line says: "It must have been fashionable at the time".

Wow!

Cool article!! It's always intriguing to me to discover what was considered fashionable (way) back in the day...

 

[pandorabox]

Wow. Super duper cool! Of course I had to check out the oldest show too!

 

[DortheDick]

Wow, do not like it

Dog teeth.

Hmm. I never did like a lot of hardware on my bag, maybe this was the Stone Age lady's idea of hardware...?

:lolots:More like an "updated version" of the "tooth bag". Apparently, this bag was buried with its' owner. I don't know if I'd want to do that with my bags. Might have to cover me up with them or get another coffin just for them. LOL

Beauty! That's one to stalk on the Bay

Nice to know that our passion is a primal urge. How can we argue with that?
