The seller is listing it as part of the Drexel Profile series, but it doesn't look like any of the other Profile furniture I've seen. I originally had my heart set on a Heywood-Wakefield whalebone table, but after seeing the simplicity and beauty of the Drexel designs, I was won over. Thanks, Pam! Please please, I appeal to all my retro ren friends not to bid against me!! I'll post pics (if I win), and when my dining room is finished with new floor, new table and chairs, and new hanging "satellite" retractable lamp (which I also recently got from eBay).

Your readers may enjoy the vintage styles and graphics of these airline bags. In the house of my dreams I'd have a long wall displaying my choice bags on glass shelving. But imagine the constant pesky dusting! ;-) I check your blog on a daily basis - your perkyness is contagious! Hey 50sPam, of course!

I've been collecting vintage airline bags for a number of years. Have kinda kicked the habit lately - it's getting increasingly difficult to find bags I want that I don't already have ;-) and my storage space is packed to the gills. Hey 50sPam, truly!!!!
