“It’s not strictly Philadelphia, but by nature that’s where most of it comes from. The leather comes from all over the world—and that’s an extension of what we do when we travel somewhere, the scavenger hunt is part of the fun.”

So says Walter Kent, who owns a Philadelphia business called Peg and Awl with partner Margaux. The business centers on transforming old materials into lovely handmade goods like notebooks or canvas bags. You can shop their merchandise at http://pegandawlbuilt.com/.

At Gene Messer Lincoln Lubbock, located at 6000 West 19th, we sell some pretty lovely goods as well, in the form of new Lincoln models. Comet take one for a spin today.
