FREE: Genuine EEL Skin PURSE Vintage Clutch

The listing, Genuine EEL Skin PURSE Vintage Clutch has ended.

I have had this eel skin clutch for over 20 years. I have carried it once, because I kept thinking about eels, when they are not pretty or in handbag form.

I have never forgotten my trip to the local pet shop....
One six foot eel, swimming calmly, in his tank.

Next visit : One four foot eel, added to the six foot eel's tank; getting along famously....

Next visit : No eels in the tank !

I asked the shop-keep,"Who bought the eels?"
He replied,
"When I opened shop, last week, I panicked, because I didn't see them in their aquarium !"

"I then saw a pool of water, in the back of the store."

" Then saw one ENORMOUS eel...."
Dead,but still smiling.
Big eel, "FOUNDERED," eating up the little eel .

This bag is NOT them; just a reminder of them....

I purchased it as a vintage piece.
The lining is of SOME animal; maybe leather ????
The eel skin exterior is intact and slippery feeling.
The lining is intact; light grey in color; probably cream-colored, originally.
Has a magnetic-clasp closure. Has a pocket on front and back; also has an internal, zipped pocket w/ tag that says Genuine Eel Skin.
Approx. size : 11x6 1/2 "
I tried to take a pic of the tag; blue tag showed, w/ red printing. (On inside of bag.)
Please help me get this oddly-lovely item out of my closet !
