    Does anyone out there know anything about the leather bag that Mos Def as Ford Prefect carried in the film version of Hitchhikers? I have been looking around since the movie hit screens , but I cannot seem to find anything on it. Any leads at all would be immensely appreciated.

    I know just what you're talking about, sadly I've never seen a pattern for it But the best thing I can think of is to get some screen caps and try and make it yourself. Cause I know I would want one. Most of all don't panic

    This MAY go without saying, but just to be sure... I have a feeling that bag may be something that was sold in the UK, to make it more authentic for the locations the story is set in (well, during the first few minutes, anyway.) So you may want to check out websites from the UK. Just a thought, hope it helps.

    Thanks for the help and advice thus far. I have been poking around, trying to find British leather companies and so forth. I have come across a company named Scaramanga that makes a bag that looks pretty close. The Small Wide Leather Messenger Bag. It's not THE bag, but it's close. I'd still be interested if anyone can go one better, or if anyone has any info on the actual bag. Thanks again.
