A little piece of wartime entertainment history, now in wallet form.

Creative Process

No two designs are the same!

I love to collect vintage and retro books, magazines and other special documents such as sheet music and street directories to create a unique collection of wallets.

When designing a wallet, I select and cut out the pages (one for the outside and one for the lining) and cover them with clear PVC to have a waterproof protection.

From there I carefully stitch together the pages and fold them over to create your wallet, adding a Lyssy May label in the process to ensure its handmade story is shared.

I love these wallets as a unique and creative gift. It's recycling while still keeping the nostalgia going of the the old refidex. Alyssa was happy to do a custom order and turn around was quick. I like supporting handmade and people's creativity.
