Ma wee puir sporran....
We've seen threads on What's In Your Sporran, and PLENTY of people showing off their recently acquired custom made sporrans, but what about the old sporrans?
That's what this thread is for. I want to see who's got the most beat up sporran. The one that most needs to be replaced. That ratty old women's purse you've strapped around your waist. The Buzz Kidder with the bleach stain. The semi-formal with the bald spot.
(Yes Grant, you can show the chicken...)
So come on! Show me yer poor auld sporran..............!

Here is my wee puir sporran, it's close to 60 years old, but I still wear it from time to time, when it was given to me there was an old bus ticket in it that I make sure is in there at all times

Here's an old one. The overall look is rather nice although it isn't very big. I think it goes well with all those small kilts and jackets from the old days when people weren't very big. It's not a very common design either.

And one that I got with a bunch of other stuff on Ebay. This is the most putrid excuse for a sporran I've ever seen.
Some sort of muppet fur and bright chrome.

And the back, wait there are no guts. I guess you could use it for a lap desk. I especially like the quality paper clips just waiting to destroy a kilt.

I think I may cannibalize it some-day for a project.

Now let me add a wee bit of sauce for the goose...
One of the sporran makers on this site (I won't mention his name at this time, as I don't wish to run afoul of the Advertising rules) has allowed me to pass on a 15% discount off one of his fine custom sporrans for whoever has the rattiest, ugliest sporran, or otherwise needs to "flip his sporran."
So keep those photos coming!

I love your description!! 
You know, you could actually probably make some good money on e-bay by selling "Genuine Muppet Fur sporrans"!!

OOOO! I want a cookie monster sporran.
Now, there are a few muppets I would like to see made into sporrans, but I wouldn't want to wear them.
