: : : : I really really need some help from any fellow Indiana Jones
: : : : fan. By any chance does anyone know what kind of leather strap was
: : : : used on the Mark-VII satchel? I would like to get one just like it,
: : : : or as close as possible. Have any of you talked to Burmans and Nathan
: : : : in London concerning this? I really need to know, because I have my
: : : : satchel coming in the mail in a few days.

: Michaelson, could you do me a big favor? I don't have a shop like that where I live.
: If you could have that guy manufacture another one of those straps for me, I will send you a
: check in the mail for it. Name your price. I would really appreciate this.

: Sincerely,

: : : On a further note, I spoke to the man who works at Sentimental
: : : Journey, and the old bloke was terribly unable to help me. I mistakenly
: : : referred to him as "the official supplier for the movies." to which
: : : he said, "Excuse me? I have NEVER been the official supplier to any
: : : movie or any film." Then he went on to fill in my questions about
: : : the battle of Somme, and his pet phrase: The Mind of Man is Bounded
: : : by the Universe. "They were two years in the making and ten minutes
: : : in the destroying" Somme, 1st July 1916. So, can any of you guys help
: : : with info on the satchel strap. Look, I'll go out and buy a purse if I
: : : have to just to het an adjustable strap. I swear!!! :)

: : Dale, do you have a shoe repair shop in your area? You'll find that most shoe repairman are old hands at this thing, and have the equipment to make exactly what you need. I have one in my town who has made and exact duplicate of the strap and attached it to my Mark VII bag after just seeing a picture of it in one of my books. Only charged me 3 bucks, buckle and all. Check close to home. You probably have an expert right there in your backyard. I did. Regards. Michaelson

Dale: No need to be to desparate! email me. We'll see if I can get you taken care of. I had something on my computer that looked like your header, but the message was scrambled. (@#$%@ University equipment!) Try again. I'll be glad to try and help. Regards. Michaelson
