Bag
New and improved! Now with a longer strap and enough depth to hold a six-pack.
“I Would Prefer Not To,” black, all-cotton book bag—sports the phrase that made Bartleby the Scrivener famous on the front, and the Melville House logo on the back.
A random list of thing you can carry in the new, improved bag:
- A good chunk of the Art of the Novella Series
- A baby
- A French bulldog
- Two cats (small) or eight to ten kittens
- A bevy of pencils sharpened by David Rees
- Probably about 20 Criterion DVD’s (untested)
- Diapers
- A waffle iron
- 33 lbs of wheat grain
- Nine carpentry hammers and less than fifty nails
- Sixteen flutes (standing vertically)
- A lot of thimbles
- Differing amounts of rocks, depending on size
- Seven squirrels
- Maybe eight, but it’s dangerous
- Twenty-four Wiffle balls
- Your old Nintendo with controllers, power cords and a few games
- That other less literary bag you’ve had since junior high
- Many, many bananas
- Small to average sized watermelon (untested)
- A bust of Bach
- Two baker’s dozen donuts
- One-hundred and fifty-three pirate patches
- But only seventy-eight clown noses
- Thirty-nine ice cream cones (single scoop)
- Two napa cabbages
