Vintage 60s French PTT Bag

Vintage 60s French leather postal bag

This sturdy and timeless leather satchel was originally issued to French postal workers by the PTT (Postes, Télégraphes et Téléphones) in 1962. The original date stamp is still visible inside the bag, adding to its authenticity and historical appeal.

The bag features a spacious main compartment, making it ideal for carrying a laptop, books, or everyday essentials, as well as a smaller front pocket for items that need to be kept within easy reach.

With its rugged, utilitarian design and beautifully aged leather, this piece is both practical and stylish. Whether used as an everyday bag or displayed as part of a vintage collection, it is sure to make a statement.

After more than 60 years, the bag remains in solid vintage condition and shows honest signs of use and wear consistent with its age. The leather has developed a rich patina over the decades, enhancing its character and charm. Two of the original metal studs on the bottom are missing, but this does not affect the bag’s functionality.

The leather has been carefully cleaned with saddle soap and treated with leather conditioner to preserve its suppleness and natural sheen.
