    From the Great White North

    This is an old WinnWell striking bag, made in Canada. How old do you say? Well, it appears that had the old still bladder with the inflation tube accessed through the top laces. Also, it looks like there is no top loop. This means that it has/had a wooden ball or cone that fitted in the neck, that had a rope that went through a hole in it that threaded though the ball on a Nichols style swivel. http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-SPEE...IAAOSw44BYjUjx

    Hard to tell much about it from that single picture. I think there is a top loop but it has fallen over to the unseen side. Looks like it has taken a beating but help up well.

      It's possible that the loop has folded over. the style of the bag is newer than when the the rope swivel bags were being made. I agree that a few more photos of the bag would be helpful. Also I'm waiting for my new glasses to come in. First really new pair in over a decade. That ought to help me a bit .If the price doesn't skyrocket at the last minute, hmmmm. The misses says "another one" and I say yeah, you'll may like this one.....
