I don't come on the threads to win a popularity contest .Make of me what you will, it is of no interest to me. I respond to a comment as I see fit , and if people don't like it tough. I can cope with any insult thrown my way and let's face it many have tried.
Not actually my "fav" but living during the 40's and the War as a child made me realise how well people can pull together during a crisis. We coped with food rations etc and the fear of being bombed.
The 60's are what I recall most for many reasons . Fashion ,music and so many inter cultural changes going on in the World. I recall exactly where I was when President Kennedy was shot. Some things you never forget.
So pleased that it hasn't affected you personally H, but none the less a terrible tragedy for Canada especially as a policewoman was killed in the line of duty.
Are the colour of the straps even throughout? If so, it’s a knockoff Is the patina more prominent around the top of the handle strap? If so, it might be real Confirm that the style and finish are both correct for what Louis Vuitton makes. Is the trim correct? No feet when there shouldn’t be, correct lining inside? If not, it’s a knockoff. Is craftsmanship flawless? If not, it wouldn’t have made it out of the factory. It’s a knockoff. Does the pattern match at every seam? If not, it’s a knockoff. Is the stitching even and consistent? If so, it might be real. Does the bag have patches? Most likely a knockoff, possibly a vintage French company. Is there a short leg on the “L”? If so, it might be real. Are the “O’s” in the logo very round. If not, it’s a knockoff. Look for the date code. Is it in the right place? If so, it might be real. Does the date code follow the correct format for its age? If no, it is a knockoff. Is the LV on the monogram logo cut off anywhere? If so, its a knockoff. Is the LV logo ever hidden under a strap or seam? If so, its a knockoff. Is there a logo impression heat stamp somewhere on the inside? If so, it might be real. Do the snaps on the hardware have the logo? If so, it might be real. Does the hardware have discolouring or is not brass? If so, its a knockoff. What’s your gut tell you?
Apparently he is going to continue with his walks but think he has beaten the record for monies raised by a single person. not a bad achievement for a 99 year old.
RE: Supermarkets open up a bit on online shopping
They have taken on more delivery drivers. Just wonder what they will do with them when the crisis is over.
