United Press Photo Feb. 19, 1957 -- It's in the bag! London: Designed especially for men on vacation or a weekend in the country is this novel "travel sling," modeled by Edwin Ling at the Leather Goods Industries Fair at London's Kensington Palace Hotel. The coach-hide "handbag for men" is for use when coats are cast aside. It prevents pockets from bulging with all those necessary male accessories. Come on, fellows, admit it's a practical item!
