Yes... I'd like to know that as well...  I'm not in LA now but will be
returning after I graduate.

FWIW, I picked up two or three nice bags at the local surplus store (I
Goldberg in Philly).  The shelf said 'british haversack' but I'm only
guessing thatıs what they were.  At $11 a piece I couldn't resist.  Nice
size, about 12x12x3 with a large flap closure and a two-pocket divider.
Hugs my side nicely and not as obtrusive as my big Domke.

Mike
