Can you imagine?!
Jul 5, 2012 at 12:10 pm #1892416If you look at the revision history, you'll see it's been listed since October 2009. It's also a steal of a deal with the high price apparently at $100,000! :p

When I checked the seller had 150 offers and I'll bet everyone of them was way less than the seller's reserve amount.
Jack Daniels – Argentine Dance – Bill Amend Comic Strip – ?
I have a similar bag, no leather, that closes with 2 buttons. Maybe I can sell it and get a new truck out of the deal. L O L

Jul 5, 2012 at 2:01 pm #1892453I was seriously considering buying this pack but since the snaps have oxidation I will have to pass.
Jul 5, 2012 at 2:41 pm #1892471Its 13" wide, 11" tall and 6" deep and made of the finest 10 oz tan denim. The shoulder strap is 2.5" wide and 47" long. It has a two button closure. The buttons are brown plastic and 7/8" in diameter.
This was a MYOG "haversack" belonging to my Dad. His name and phone number are written in sharpie on the underside of the 8" x 13" double layered top flap.
Greg won't have to worry about oxidation on this pack since in true ultralight fashion there is no metal in this pack.
Its volume is 858 cubic inches or 14 liters. It weighs 11.1 ounces on my digital scale. Yes I actually weighed it. L O L
As you will notice from the pictures it has all the correct coloring, shading and mold stains for a "fishing bag" which was its primary use.
Anyone interested must agree to me bleaching out my Dad's phone number as it is still in use. :-)
I needed a good laugh. I hope you did too!
Party On,
Newton
Jul 8, 2012 at 6:39 am #1893017A metal tag that say when the bag was patented tells nothing about if this was one of the first bags or not. I'm sure all bags that were made at that time had the same tag on them. They probably had the same tag for years.
Jul 8, 2012 at 7:07 am #1893018They still make that bag. They also use that vintage tag from time to time to. The bag in question is probably less than 20 years old.
