Vintage 1982 (Date Code E 812)
The Original Ghurka Bag
The Express No. 2
Marley Hodgson
Finest Handmade Leather Gear
Norwalk, Connecticut, USA
Registered Bag No. E812
Measures approximately 20" wide x 12" tall x 9" deep.
The bag is usable in its current condition, but, shows quite a lot of use and has many areas that will need repair at some point.  Most notably, the top zipper for the main compartment is on the verge of ripping through on one side (see last photo) which would make it unusable until repaired (I checked with Ghurka and they will replace it for about 0).  Other than the zipper, the rest of the wear and tear is cosmetic and doesn't affect the functionality of the bag - cracked trim around the front pockets and top opening, loose thread, lots of marks on the exterior and interior.  Please enlarge the photos or zoom in closely so you can see all of the marks on the bag - it definitely needs a good steam cleaning.  But, there are no noticeable odors.  The leather is fairly well maintained, just a little bit dry.  If you prefer, I will treat it with LUXOR all natural chemical free leather conditioner before shipping - just send me a note at checkout if you'd like this.
I will ship same day by Priority Mail, FedEx or UPS.
