Love the hands in spiny oyster. And the creativity and daring in conceiving and creating this in 1925 is just mind blowing!

I agree, Mike. It certainly was (and still is, I believe) highly unique.
As an aside, it sold for $1,200 in 1975, equivalent to $7170.22 today. Here is the catalogue photo. The tooled leather is interesting, as well.
