It is probably 3 times the size of a court bag. If I still had mine I would do a comparison pic for you. I saw an old post saying a Crosby is the size of a kelly 32 and that is pretty accurate. They are also pretty hard to find.

I wouldn't cannibalize a Crosby for a Court. The Crosby is much rarer and I would think more valuable.
Spam! My parents are from the PhilippinesMy mom is always stocked up on Spam and she made a spam and potato omelet for lunch for us yesterday. (She's coming over to watch my toddlers so I can work.) I was more surprised at the lack of Vienna sausage! I grew up eating Vienna sausage with rice, and I was kind of craving it. I also love canned corned beef with potatoes - so sad that there was also no corned beef at the grocery. My MIL gave us a big bag of potatoes and I would have loved to make that dish. I keep wondering if all the people hoarding these canned meats will actually eat it!
My parents are from the PI, too. I haven’t been back to visit since I was 18.
I always have Spam and corned beef. I only usually buy a couple of cans, so it was crazy when I couldn’t get any. We still had a few cans of Vienna sausages left. I used to love eating those with Hawaiian rolls. Spam and potato omelet and corned beef with potatoes are my favorite breakfasts. I can eat corned beef all day with some rice. You know, I can’t understand why they would hoard some of that. Certain corned beef brands that I buy are expensive, so they better eat it and not try to resell.
I showed this purse to my hubby and told him it is about my age lol He told me to make an offer. Anyway, after a little back and forth I got it for $20. I'll post some pics when I get it. Even if it's worse than it looks I am excited to get a Coach of that age.
Be interested to see how it rehabs...good luck.
Also ..are they anchors on the dogleash clips?
The top handle on the Crosby is stitched in place so it cannot be removed anyway. Your best bet is to find a Court I think.
How do you make corned beef with rice?? That sounds so good. I've only ever had it with cabbage, turnips, and potatoes. I'm half Irish!
We use the canned corned beef. Sauté garlic, onions, tomato. Throw in some fried, diced potatoes. Mix in the corned beef and throw it over some white rice. It’s corned beef hash basically over rice. I usually like it with a fried egg.
Maybe it's not hoarding, it could just be that the demand has increased for cheap, easy meals. Families are all at home and they are eating more homemade meals.
Love this as an option. Love my court bags but need more room in the winter

I think it's 9905. At least when I bought mine, that's the code the seller used but that doesn't necessarily mean she was correct.
