I saw the particular bag line referred to in the Authenticate thread today and found this article about the line in the Palm Beach Daily News from May 7, 1987. You gotta love Google!:smile1:

OMG matt-g,
This is great! What a piece of history. Some of those Symbiose bags were pretty ugly. Hermès trying to be "with it" instead of staying true to the brand. Thanks for posting!

The one in the Authenticate this bag thread looked pretty interesting: red ostrich with a green suede flap. It looked a bit like a strawberry. But I was fascinated that they actually sent a craftsman from store to store to make bags so people could see the process. I've no idea if they still do that, but I think it'd be so special to watch your bag being made from start to finish!

Yes, I saw that one - very retro!
I would love to watch a craftsman make a Birkin or a Kelly from scratch...

I hope I am posting this in a correct thread. I thought others might like to see this.

This ad was featured in a magazine advertising the Manhasset NY mall (where there is an H store).

Featured are the Beloved India scarf, the Trim Bag, the Lotus cadena, and the Chaine d'ancre bracelet.
