Original Vintage 1960s Black Doctor's Bag/Briefcase
This is a great and very collectable vintage item, an original doctor's bag/briefcase from the 1960s. Well made with reinforced metal trims on the bottom corners. Small front flap with brass tone metal push-lock and three places to close - this is adjustable depending on how full the bag is. Unfortunately there is no key attached so this can be opened and closed perfectly but not actually locked. Measures approx 17" x 13" x 5.5". Normal signs of use but generally in very good vintage condition.

Fabulous and unique vintage Doctors bags, vintage briefcases and vintage 1960s Doctors bags from My Vintage, hand-picked by us from around the world.
At My Vintage, we take time to carefully measure each item of vintage clothing so that you have the best chance of ensuring a good fit whenever you buy from us. We measure the clothing laid flat as the diagrams show below and for bust, chest, waist and hips we double the measurement. For example, if the waist measures 17" across when laid flat then this would equate to a 34" waist (17 x 2 = 34)
We use the measurements we collate to assign each item of vintage clothing with an approximate modern-day size. For example, a dress with a 34" bust, 28" waist and 34" hips would normally equate to a current UK size 10. The labels on vintage clothing can vary massively depending on country of origin and date of manufacture. Clothing sizes have changed over the years and from decade to decade we see alternative types of sizing as well as variations on the way measurements equate to dress sizes.
We always recommend that you double-check the measurements of the vintage clothing item you are interested in, ideally by measuring an item of clothing you already own and that fits well, and comparing these measurements. There can be variations due to the desired fit, shape and fabric of an item but our size guidelines are normally very accurate and take the stress out of buying vintage online.
