206 - Doctor's Bag

This is a leather doctor's bag in the brief shape with a rigid metal mechanism to hold the shape of the bag when open. It has two leather handles, as well as a lock that slides to the right when unlocked to unlatch the bag. The interior of the bag has one pocket attached to the interior wall of the bag, and both the pocket and lining are also made from leather. The leather on the exterior of the bag is discolored from age, as well as flaking off along the bottom and folded aspects of the bag. The handles are in good condition, and the lock has scratching and discoloration from age but no large dents. The interior of the bag has a few pen marks across both the bottom and the pocket, as well as a streak of green at the base of the bag. There is general wear on the interior of the leather of the bag.
