I have a W & D gold gate top purse that I gave to my bridesmaids in 1970. I neever knew that it was a vintage style. I am not selling but would like to know what it is worth.

It depends on the condition. I’d guess between $50-150. Check out eBay — the prices are all over the place.

I have the Renee Adoree bag which was released in the 1970’s. Had no idea this was a special bag until I saw one of the other of the series of 4 on ebay. Need to sell. Last info I can get on a sale was in 2006 – sold for $2124. Any suggestions as to who best to contact.
