This Is Another One Of Those 'Good Luck' Stories Like So Much,

this time featuring a handbag,


John Richard, 73, picked up the bag, covered with images of Elvis Presley by artist Andy Warhol at a Oxfam store which is a charity shop, imagine his joy when he found out it was the work of Irish designer Philip Treacy, one of ten ever made, he took it to a Philip Treacy shop and they confirmed it was one of theirs, Gee Brunet, manager of Philip Treacy London, said: 'it is definitely one of our originals, I was surprised he found it in a charity shop, it could reach £350,000 it’s a piece of art, not a bag', as if to confirm it's worth Mr Richard has already had two offers for it, one for £250,000 and the other £350,000 both potential buyers in China, lucky or what!
