FOR THE IDEAL GIFT at Christmas
time, what could be better than an item
of Luggage or Leather Goods? For the
ladies, a lovely handbag of English Calf-
skin or Genuine Morocco, a billfold de-
signed for her, or an item of beautiful
luggage of which she would always be
proud. 'For the men, a wallet or billfold
of quality, a pair of comfortable, durable
house slippers, or a business case ' or
travelling bag. The utility case for his
shaving needs or the ever popular leather
bound writing case would be only too
acceptable for travel or holidays. Before
deciding on your Christmas gift list, see
the items at
Aiken's Leather Goods
