Okay, I fibbed ... I have a third one from Costa Rica I would like authenticated. The A1P looks a little wonky to me but that may be the norm.

Approximately 9 3/4" long x 9 1/2" high to the center of the bag with a 22" strap drop.

Thanks again and that really is the last one for today :smile:

It's a genuine Hippie Flap of some kind, I don't have the exact name on file.

Hi,
I purchased this item on eBay & have reservations about its authenticity. Stitching is questionable in areas & lining was "stuck" to the interior as if it had been glued down but the glue was still tacky. I've also noticed the stitching appears to have been glued in spots because when you run your fingers across that area it's hard & stiff as well as a sticky residue. There are also spots under the lining that look bumpy & the exterior front pocket has a different type of material for the trim that appears like a pleather or something similar & the stitching is glued together at 1 spot & it's hard like previously stated. The bag is heavy & substantial & appears to be Leather although it does seem to be losing the new leather smell as days go on & it's only been a week. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance!!!
