WELL LOVED authentic vintage speedy as seen in pics yet still so much life left! I had bought this to revamp the handles and add stitching over the piping, but I purchased another style. I believe the code is SO or SD and 842 on the inside of the handle attachments. Wear: NO HOLES OR CRACKS in the monogram!!! Super hard to find this age. However, one of the handles attachments have been replaced/repaired and a brand new zipper and pull have been put on by the Rago Brothers in NJ. There is still wear/dryness on the handles in pics. There is an interior (lipstick?) stain that was there when I bought it that shows a bit on the outside leather. I have not tried cleaning it, so it may come out more! This bag is a great bag for a revamp option or to wear without worrying about damaging a brand new bag. Please see all pictures and ask any questions prior to buying!!
