Granny's Purses

Did your granny carry a purse, pocketbook, handbag or clutch bag?

Did she carry a purse on different occasions whether to match a pair of shoes, an outfit or a hat? A different purse would be carried in the summer, fall, spring or winter.

I can remember the many bags carried by my grannies, mom, aunts, cousins and their many friends, some purses were passed down from generation to generation. I still have a designer bag that was carried by my Mom in the 1970's passed down to me to carry then my sisters carried it for a while and returned it to my Mom and now I have it again.
