Vintage Cognac Leather Handbag Purse with heavy Metal American Eagle Emblem on front

Very unique bag with a metal American Eagle in flight that spans most of the front of the bag.  Like nothing I've ever seen, perfect for fall in a thick cognac leather, the bag is stiff (stands on its own, it is not a supple leather, think saddle).  

The purse has one compartment, no side pockets.  The interior is unlined, raw leather.  It closes with one twist-turn latch.

Measurements:
Length across back 12" at the base and 14" from side-to-side where strap is attached.  The bag is longer at the top than it is at the bottom/base.
Width 3 1/2" to 4"
Height 8"
The strap is very short, can only be used as a handle, will not fit on shoulder.
The purse will fit a wallet, phone, lipstick, small cosmetic bag.  It won't fit a tablet.

Condition: a few small scuffs to the leather consistent with age, note the one on the strap that is highlighted with a circle around it in one of the images.  The inside shows little signs of wear however there is a spot on the inside bottom. The outside bottom of the bag around edges shows wear all the way around and a smudge mark which can be seen in the image of the bottom of the bag.  See photos for condition.

Very rustic and beautiful, but with signs of wear, so not for the shopper who's looking for brand new.
