Don't worry the shoulder strap is also included, but it's curled up inside the bag in the first picture. you will see it in some of the other pictures where I put it on top of the bag. this is a really cool vintage bag because it shows age, but only in little ways while still maintaining that awesome look. I tried my best to show any imperfections in the pictures like slight wear on the leather at the top and a small piece of plastic sticking through the leather on the bottom. these things could possibly even be repaired, but some people like the imperfections in a vintage bag.
