You're dying to take a trip to Europe but you don't have time, money, someone to cover for you at work, or a place to stash the kids. The solution: the Holiday in Italy purse. Have a couple of margaritas then stare at the neat pictures and pretend you're one of the tiny stylish 50's tourists visiting the boot shaped country. I suppose that these holiday albums were very much in vogue at one time since I come across so many. I can imagine some 50's housewife scrubbing her toilet while listening to "O Sole Mio" and daydreaming of being taken away by Luigi.
The purse is made from the albums "Holiday in Italy" and "Echos of Italy and Paris" although Italy is clearly on the cover. It measures 8" x 9" x 3.5," has blue-green plastic lacing, red ribbon trim, and a blue bead with elastic for closure. Blue glitter plastic strap is strong and sturdy. |
