Where has this bag been all my life? It's from Makr Carry Goods, I went on their website to look at their wallets (also beautiful) and saw this new item. It also comes in brown as well as gray...I love it!

While looking through those album covers I came across another great site. It's dedicated to Alex Steinweiss, who designed the first album covers and made them into art:


Beautiful! Check out this site here.
