Vintage USPS Letter Carrier Bag w/ Strap Merit Leather 1964 w/Mr. Zip Decal Item Description One original, heavy leather USPS issue letter carrier bag. Bag is made by Merit Leather and is stamped with maker and 1964, production date. Dimensions are approx. 16" X 14" X 6". Bag has inside pocket. Attached adjustable leather strap is marked "Property of US Postal Service". Overall condition is very good considering it's age. Leather is very heavy and stitching is intact and strong all around. Strap loops are reinforced and strong. Top flap has two small tears in leather at both edges that could be repaired. Top flap also had a repair many years ago at bottom center, but leather is original to the bag and could be reversed and restitched. There are a few pen markings with number s which could likely be cleaned as could the bag, but I've chosen to leave that decision to the buyer as the leather patina is also nice . Inside bag has a Mr. Zip decal . Overall, this is a great piece of history that still has a good de al of life left for everyday use. This item is original and is in the condition as described and pictured. High resolution pictures are provided so details can be reviewed prior to purchase. Sellers Policies PAYMENT: Payment is accepted through PayPal only . Item is shipped within one business day of receipt of payment.
