Since the gift shop's sealskin briefcase, alone, cost $200; I forgot about it. Then, looking in a case full of items made of ivory, I saw this letter opener by Robert Mayokok. I instantly knew it was what I wanted. Plus, I could afford it! As a result, that letter opener has resided in my desk at home since I purchased it over 50 years ago. It has been used more often than any other keepsake I have brought home from any of my trips since or before. The memories it brings whenever I pick it up have truly been a joy! I could not have picked a better souvenir. The scene inscribed on the handle is perfect!
