This vintage faux leather purse is so cute and unique. The purse closes with cinch handles. There are two pockets on the front and back of the purse. The purse measures 12 ½” by 10 ½” with 8” handles. This purse is perfect for the 4th of July!

This purse is in very good vintage condition. The outside of the purse is in wonderful shape; there are a few wrinkles from normal use and a small mark that is not very noticeable. The lining is clean, but there are small rips near the top seam of the purse. All and all this purse is in great shape and very usable.

Batgirl Bag

Photographer's note:

Show your adoradation for all things Batman and comics with this one-of-a-kind sling hobo bag emblazoned with Batgirl. (Info on the illustration is below). The back of the back in a black swirl fabric with two rows of decorative stitching to match the front so you can reverse the bag if desired.

In the best superhero spirit this bag is a team up between three artisans, myself, Charles and Mollie. The wonderful hand-painted reclaimed fabric of Etsy Artisan, Mollie of Monkey Shines designs was just the perfect compliemnt for Charles' art... almost like she created the piece just for this bag!

Mollie says:
I love it! I'm so glad you could make something beautiful out of that piece.

Of course, the focal point of the bag is Charles' amazing Bat Girl drawing. The dark lady of comics, Batgirl, is shown at her brooding best in this illustration by local Las Vegas artist Charles Holbert Jr.. This artwork is an original creation and is used with permission.

You can see more of Charles' work at

Lone Heroine measures about 12" wide by 8" high. It closes with a matching orange zipper and the inside has a zipper pocket in the black swirl lining.
