VINTAGE LINESMAN BAG




Found this 1950's or 60's era Bell System linesman tool bag this past weekend. Has real nice leather handles & strap closure and is made out of a PVC coated vinyl (commonly mistaken for leather). Was used by telephone repair men to haul their tools. Has 2 metal D rings on either side of the opening where a shoulder strap could be attached.

This bag is super sturdy and in perfect condition. Plus it's just real nice looking. But alas I do not need another vintage tool bag .. so I just listed it on eBay. It's available here if you're interested.
