[QUOTE="Figtree3, post: 2041614, member: 33"]At least one of the sites I linked mentioned that Mandalian and Whiting & Davis were two of the prominent companies making this type of purse. Based on the information that Debora posted, that mark on the bag would date from 1915-1944. It may be possible to narrow that date range by doing further research on the company. I don't know how to clean that stain. If it were me, I might lightly dab it (no rubbing) with a lightly moistened cloth to see whether it would easily come off or not. Other than that, I'm not sure.[/QUOTE]
