Happy Friday!

Can you please take a look at this bag? I wasn’t able to find the color banana in the 1997 or 1998 catalogs!

Seller: Purple_cocoon
It's authentic. Waverly was made in banana in 1995. There was also chamois and butterscotch. I don't know if they were using any of these colors in 1997.
 
Yeah, yeah, yeah I know, no more bags until I get rid of a few. Haha could you please look at this guy that I couldn’t possibly let go? From Facebook marketplace https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1313628652328783/
10”x10”x3”. More verdigris than I’ve ever encountered. Yuck. I had already started removing the hardware before I remembered to take photos.

Thanks @BeenBurned It was such a surprise. First saw the listing about 2 years ago. Miraculously it didn’t sell and on Thursday night I got notice that the price had dropped. Seller even delivered it to me!
Yes, I saw that it was an old listing! I'm surprised that it didn't sell for so long.

And personal delivery? That's wonderful, although risky when parties don't know each other.
