ARTS & CRAFTS Meeker "Madge Bellamy" purse 1920

Price: $238.00
Description ARTS & CRAFTS Meeker "Madge Bellamy" leather purse with fitted mirror, pencil and comb inside, circa 1920.

This purse is a billfold or a child size at 4-1/2" by 4-1/2" with 10" handle.

There was a Madge Bellamy who was a stage and film actress popular 1920's, and I assume she is the person after whom this style was named.

I love all the fitted compartments in this purse, and it is in excellent condition except for the coin purse, where the little snap has pulled through the leather.  More can be seen about these purses in our reference section HERE.  Arts & Crafts purses were advertised in the "Denver Jewelers Buying Guide, 1932", among other catalogs, and they came in a wide variety of designs.   View   View   View   View    View
