I am all about vintage. I just love quirky pieces that you will rarely see anyone else with. I also love the quality of early bags. Often designers have to compromise on quality when they get huge (obviously not always!) But it's more than this.... I also love a bag with a story!
It's like visiting an old building or reading an old book... with a history.

will post some pics soon.

I'm doing maintenance on some of my vintage exotic grandes dames this weekend and thought I'd share. Here are my Martin Van Schaak lovelies - 3 in lizard and one in crocodile.
All are in regular rotation at work and at evening events.

These are wonderful, thanks for sharing
I love Martin Van Schaak! I purchased four of his bags by chance for under $5. They are not the skins, one is suede, patent, 2 are made of this heavy cloth; they are more like clutches, but can be worn as shoulder bags. The history of the handbag is fabulous ; I simply love your handbags!I'm doing maintenance on some of my vintage exotic grandes dames this weekend and thought I'd share.

I love vintage handbags. I often find that even no-name, run of the mill handbags made over 50 years ago are of excellent quality. There is also the added benefit that no one else is likely to be carrying the same bag as you!

Thank you billysmom for sharing these unique beauties. I had to look Martin van Schaak up - what an amazing history! Made to order for the cream of US society, with Jackie Kennedy , Nancy Reagan and Marlene Dietrich as customers. Sort of like getting your Birkin made to order 50 years ago. Now I'll be watching eBay for just the right one!
