Attention purse lovers...

If you are or know anyone that collects purses this could be a great item as a gift or if you want to treat yourself!  Personally, I've always been a purse lover!  As you might suspect, I have taken over the closet many times from my husband with my collection!

This book will identify, by chapter, purse styles over a 100-year span, from 1880 to 1980. Any female who loves or is fascinated with handbags must own this book. More than 320 photos showcase creative, stylish, flamboyant, prestigious, and conventional purses. You will learn that the handbag creates a mystery about the owner. Discussed are purses of all types: beaded, evening, Lucite, pearl, straw, reptile, tapestry, and bags from the 1940s to the 1960s. There is also a chapter on German silver, compacts, and accessories. This book is truly a delight for purse lovers of all ages.
