i have a doctors bag. some may of seen me with it.
inside that, i cary the close up stuff, in an edwardian shirt collar case.

I never knew that the box was an edwardian shirt collar case, untill one day, id got on a train to do a gig, and sat opposite this guy.

he sat there smilling at me, and i thought.." hello...maybe my lucks in."

he leaned over, tapped the box and said.

"I know whats in there.."

I thought "No... you dont".

"its stiff collars isnt it!"


"Er ...nope.....Playing cards."

it was then that he told me that he was a legal guy in the city,, and the box was original used to carry judges stiff collars.

"Facinating" i thought, as i realised my luck was thankfully, not in.... :lol:

I bought mine in wilkinsons.

Im sure that there are simular discount stores in the states.

Its just an oval box, covered with faux brown crocodile skin, with a brass catch, and a brass handle on top.
its flock lined too.

no compartments, but just the right size for my needs.
