We note German primary children in the 1920s continuing to use the traditional learher satchels. The images we have noted show fairly standard styles. The clothing styles change, but the satchels continue relatively unchanged. We continue to note small differences, but the basic construction and size seems largely unchanged. The tooling and designs varied. We notice some of these satchels have a kind of flap cover that went completely over the front side. Others had a kind of flap that only went midway down the front. Others had what look like aligator leather. These seem to be more popular with the girls. We do not notice stylish differences between the boy and girl satchels as we do notice in Switzerland. All seem to be leather satchels and left in natural leather colors. We think virtually every German primary child had one of these satchels, including working-class children. We note both individual and group photographs of children with these sarchels which suggest that they were very common.
