The purse is a contemporary interpretation of Susan B. Anthony’s trademark alligator purse. This limited edition, faux alligator handbag is 17″wide and 5″deep, standing 11″ to the top of the zipper closure and 17″ from the bottom to the top of the handles. The exterior is a glossy, deep chocolate brown; the interior is a warm fawn color. The synthetic material is easily cleaned and durable. Ms. Anthony is designed to fit comfortably over the shoulder and accommodates a mini laptop and a host of other essentials. It features two quotes from Susan B. Anthony: a plate reading “Failure is impossible” on the back of the purse, and “Every woman needs a purse of her own” stamped on the reverse of the Abigail Riggs Collection “bee” medallion on the front. Each handbag is numbered and only 2,000 have been produced. Women of all ages are proud to carry this beautiful modern handbag as a reminder of the pioneer who believed that every woman should have the right to economic independence and financial success. One hundred percent of the purchase price benefits the mission and programs of the Susan B. Anthony House.
