Vtg Black Patent Handbag Cocktail Purse Crystals MM Morris Moskowitz,1950-70S

A STUNNING vintage CLASSIC Morris Moskowitz ORIGINAL cocktail envelope purse. Two silver tone horseshoe shaped rhinestone encrusted loops attach to the top of the purse and the leather handles are secured with two delicate bands of rhinestones set in silver tone metal. It comes with a perfect mint condition mirror embellish with the "MM" logo in gold on back background, that slips into the cream colored satin pocket at the rear of the interior of the purse. There is a butter smooth leather pocket in the front and back interior of the purse. The sides and bottom of the purse are lined in black satin. No tears, stains or damage. I cannot find any similar to this that have come up for sale. So far appears to be one of a kind. It is small, as in a clutch size. It is 7.5" across. Bottom to top of purse (without handle) is 5.25". Bottom to top of purse with handle is 7.5" Just as chic as the day it was produced. A classic, timeless design. A stickler for quality, Morris Moskowitz and his trademark MM label epitomize a well-tailored, conscientiously evolving handbag fashion of the mid-century. Born August 28, 1911, the second of five children of Hyman and Rose Moskowitz, Morris grew up on New Yorks Lower East Side. Morris Moskowitz started working at age 10, eventually quitting school at age 14, per a newspaper article.
