The bag as seen in the above photos has been available since June/July of this year, but one of our customers emailed to say she had just discovered one at her Barnes & Noble store.
Released in honor of the 75th Anniversary of the publication of GONE WITH THE WIND, when I purchased several back in the summer, I was told they were for a limited time only so I was surprised to hear that some are still available. They are quite nice and at a wonderful price of only $1.95 each! The GWTW book image is on both sides of the bag.
The bag measures 15-1/2" tall, 12" wide, and 5-1/2" deep. The handle spans 10 inches. They are made of some sort of sturdy recycled material that almost seems like a close woven mesh material, and they seem to be pretty strong. They are great for books or to use as a tote bag, which I have done quite often. I cut a piece of cardboard to put in the bottom of mine so that it makes a more secure bottom. Needless to say, if someone has not seen them before, they sure make a great conversation piece for us GWTW fans.
If you are interested, just contact your closet Barnes & Noble store and see if they have any; if not, perhaps they can check their computer and tell you where the closest source would be to you.
