I live in Texas and this valise turned out to be from Isle of Man.

Was the measuring tool missing completely? I love maps too but have never found a place that sold many. That little town sounds like a wonderful place to spend a day. It's so rare here to find a little town, or even a big town that has many independently owned shops. It seems like it's all chain stores now.Martihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03559847090671071342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615153402976288652.post-42047311278955341262013-02-11T19:10:37.833+00:002013-02-11T19:10:37.833+00:00wow what a wonderful find, he must be thrilled!
