Hunted Antique Purse
Description :
This purse was given to my great Grand Mother by Lizzy Borden. The purse is Hunted!

Hmmm... this purse really belonged to the Goodwill store, but that does not sell on eBay!

When my great grandmother came to this country she came from New York to RI to Boston to Maine and finally back to Boston and she spent some time in RI where Lizzy Borden’s Father took pity on her and employed her for a while to do some sewing in exchange for room and board,. Lizzy Borden befriended my Great Grand Mother and when she left Lizzy gave her some money and her purse, I was told by my Mother that my Great Grand mother and Lizzy stayed in touch for many years. The story of the purse was told to me by my Mother and the purse was shown and the story retold time and again to people in my house as I was growing up in East Boston. When my mother passed on I receive the purse it had in it 2 coins a 1890 silver Dollar and a 1853 Penny I had an antique dealer look at the purse and it was worth about 300. At that time not including the coins, I am sure they have some value also. I must also mention again that this purse is ( no lie ), Extremely Haunted. And I must part with it for this reason. I also have a photograph that my Mother had placed with the purse, it is not for sale but I will post it for those that are interested I believe that this picture is of Lizzy in her later years.
