My sister and I were noodling around in a thrift shop by my apartment in Minneapolis when suddenly she called out to me and held this above her head. She well knows my thing for purses and my quirky predilections with same. I almost collapsed, breathless with awe. She read the price tag: one dollar.

As you can see, the handles are the top of the fish, and the interior is lined with a blue fabric and is really quite roomy. This is more of a "show" purse. I mean, really - where do you take this purse and what does one where it with? Though I don't have a curio cabinet or a lot of bookshelves, if I did, this is one I'd put on display. But who knows? I might just use it one day!
