Vintage 1950's magazine wallet - Nestle advertisment

$3500 AUD
Tax included, shipping calculated at checkout.

Description

This slimline handmade wallet is made from the original pages of a 1950s magazine and features an advertisement for a range of Nestle products, including Milo, Milk Chocolate and Instant Coffee. It is lined with a black and white page of the same magazine with a snipped of the romance fiction and an advertisement for Ballerina nylon stockings. It been covered with pvc to protect the paper and is a true limited edition and collectable!

It is a great little accessory to use for travel documents, face masks, smart phones or anything else you'd like to keep protected. It will be the perfect gift for someone who loves vintage reminders of a time when what was thought to be interesting to a female reader is very different to today!

The wallet is approximately 20 cm wide by 11 cm high. It closes with a magnetic clip.

Ultimately the paper will crease a little with wear, adding to your fashion story.

Designed and sewn in Queensland, Australia.

Creative Process

No two designs are the same!

I love to collect vintage and retro books, magazines and other special documents such as sheet music and street directories to create a unique collection of wallets.

When designing a wallet, I select and cut out the pages (one for the outside and one for the lining) and cover them with clear PVC to have a waterproof protection.

From there I carefully stitch together the pages to create your wallet, adding a Lyssy May label in the process to ensure its handmade story is shared.
