should I keep my vintage kelly 32?

[luxurylife88]

hI THERE! It's my first time to post here!
I usually visit the thread but I don't participate. Shy... (yeah right)
I have a brown kelly box 32 in excellent condition.
When I went to Hermes madison ave. the craftman told me it
that it's actually a 60's kelly vintage. I thought it was from the 70's.
I'd like to buy newer bags and have tons of bags already that's why i'd
like to sell it? What do you think?

I personally would NOT sell it. I mean it is vintage, and it holds some much value, not just monetary, but it's like a piece of art. I definetly think you should keep it. Sell other bags that you don't use, but not that one.

keep it for sure.

Thanks. I just can't post the pic. Don't know how. But it's really a beauty.
Pier/Craftsman from hermes NY said it's a good vintage from the 60's. Thanks.
Will post pic later...

I would keep it, but it depends on how much you love it and how you are using it.

Thank you so much Impsola, GrandsFonds, Moviegirl325, Pigleto972001 and Tammy D.

Oh Tammy D I only used it once since I got it. I love the smell of the leather though.

And yes Moviegirl325 very beautiful patina! Sorry the photo is lousy! Today is a very memorable day. First pic of my lovely vintage kelly plus my first post on purse forum. Thanks girls for the warm welcome!
