My Find of the Week...


Enid Collins designed purses in Medina, Texas from the late 50s until 1970 when Tandy Leather Corporation bought her business. Her handbags are fun to own, like this wooden box purse hand decorated with paint, sequins and rhinestones. This one dates from 1965.

Oh Timary - I love this purse! And what a cross over - it's not just a Collins purse - it's got 50's modern design in the graphics and horse appeal for the equine collectors. It's just a fab handbag and I am sooo jealous!
