This Whiting & Davis mesh purse is in excellent condition and still has the little tag on the inside. I use to buy all these that I could find for the ladies. They would buy everyone I could get my hands on, but then I wasn't seeing so many anymore so I decided to keep a few for myself. I still see the newer ones but not so many of the old ones with the tag on the inside.
