This attractive and practical english leather wallet and keychain belt is so perfectly Banana Republic Travel and Safari I’m surprised it wasn’t a staple of the catalogs for years. Instead, as blog-reader Eli pointed out, this was only seen in late 1986 (Fall and Holiday Update). Note the classic BR logo stamp on the backside. I have been doing a lot of collecting lately so my budget was thin and I let this piece go in a recent Abandoned Republic makes money from eBay links when you click and buy. I suspect I will regret it for some time to come. I’ll keep my eyes open in case another one surfaces.
