THE SPEEDY
The Speedy was first introduced in 1924 in a larger version (The Keepall) that was used to transport linens when travelling. It has gained popularity since then as a practical top-handle handbag that is both durable and convenient to use. It is made in 4 sizes: 10"(25cm), 12"(30cm), 14"(35cm) and 16"(40cm).
THE NOE
The Noe was first introduced in the early 1930's when a champagne house contacted LV to make a bag that would hold 6 bottles of champagne. The bag still serves this function - 4 bottles with the bottom down and the 5th inverted and nestled between the others. However, its bottle carrying capacity notwithstanding, the bag is primarily used as a practical city bag for everyday use. This drawstring bag comes in two sizes - the Noe itself (10" x 13" or 26cm x 34cm, pictured) and the smaller Petite Noe (9" x 11" or 24cm x 27cm). By the way, the name Noe is French for Noah, who was not only famous for loading animals on the Arc two by two, but for his ability to consume wine.

OMG! I can't believe I never realized that. I love Theda Bara! I saw her movie "A Fool There Was" during a silent movie festival. She was the original "Vamp." There are some great pics of her on Wiki:Theda Bara - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
