 you allow me to find what i need with the click of my mouse. i love looking at the vintage travel cases.  i may never get a suitcase, but i think i will be getting a vintage samsonite beauty case.    when the right one comes along, in the right color of course!<div><div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: right;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;">images:  various etsy sellers (</span><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=sr_gallery_20&amp;listing_id=12369604"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;">enigmavintage</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;">, </span><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=sr_gallery_3&amp;listing_id=12349777"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;">atouchofvintage</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;">, </span><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=sr_gallery_18&amp;listing_id=12845834"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;">rockymountainretro</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;">, </span><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=sr_gallery_9&amp;listing_id=12323825"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;">dolledupdesigns</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;">, </span><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=sr_gallery_1&amp;listing_id=12614903"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;">vintagekitchen</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;">, </span><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=sr_gallery_12&amp;listing_id=12523714"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;">modishvintage</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-small;">)</span></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6704694709042707621-4087591046734017003?l=etreinspire.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>adrihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04608773956947320247noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6704694709042707621.post-3695930790045398472008-06-13T16:09:00.000-07:002008-12-09T00:14:26.295-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vWJJvJG3UQ4/SFL_GZTCMcI/AAAAAAAAAZo/PGp5_EOJR6U/s1600-h/112807_06.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vWJJvJG3UQ4/SFL_GZTCMcI/AAAAAAAAAZo/PGp5_EOJR6U/s320/112807_06.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5211508204156105154" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;">can someone say finally?
