Anyone ever seen a leather satchel like this (Cabin Boy)

[Jet Beetle]

I'm ready for the bruises for inquiring on a prop that comes from one of the most hated movies of all time - but my son loves the film (he's 8). He thinks it's kind of like a Flapjack live action movie! Ha! Anyway while we were watching it I noticed the bag Chris Elliott carries and thought it looked pretty cool - anyone ever seen one like it?

I actually have those clasps in stock, and could make one of these.

My partner makes bags like that. Mostly messenger bags. He has made alot that look just like the one picture below. Only he only charges about half or less than what they retail for. If you can't find it anywhere and are interested in having it made, just let me know and I'll ask him.

I'm not sure how he could beat the cost of retail, as the raw materials alone nearly make it impossible.

Just kidding!

We work at Tandy Leather and get very good pricing and first dips when new leather comes in.

I saw something like that when I was looking for another style for a project about 5 years ago. They were $250 to $450 range as I recall. Couldn't tell you the sites since it was years ago but saw them after doing a google search.

Now if you need a sock monkey like in that one picture I can help you no problem.

I know that the bag you where describing is very much like the WW2 German map cases from that time. Try looking around for some of those.

Dear God I hope not.

Thanks for all the offers to get this baby custom made, but I'm still hoping I can hunt down an original.

Not EXACTLY what you're looking for but I've always wanted the stuff from this collection. Not often you see them made like this anymore.
