Apple Carry Bag?

I was recently given an Apple canvas carrying case/bag. I have never seen one like it and am not sure what it was used for. I am attaching a couple of images of it. One internal pouch looks like it was meant for 5.25 inch floppies. Anyone out there have any ideas? Thanks.

Oh! I have one of those too. Mine is also grey. I always wondered what they were for.

For some reason those iic bags seemed to have survived VERY well over the years.

I wonder if that was because nobody ever carried their IIC with them?

The bag was just tossed in a closet and the IIC setup on the desk to live life then the bag sent to GoodWill?

The bag was just constructed like a tank! It certainly is built better than that Targus thing that came with my work Thinkpad.

:lol:

I found one of those at a tag sale for $0.25 years ago (felt awesome handing over the quarter for the bag, lol). In the main compartment, it can fit a PowerBook 165 and a GCC WriteMove II -perfectly-. Its AC brick fits very nicely in one of the side containers.

I later learned it was for a Apple IIc, and wanted one ever since I found that out. By the time I actually got the IIc, though, the case was long gone. I don't remember what I did with it.

The guy who gave me one in March of 2009 had at least 3 more. He asked "Want one?" and I was like "Sure."

IIRC, mine came with a bunch of, no joke, Q-tips! And some floppy disks. I tossed the tips; saved the disks. There were also a bunch of Apple Service repair forms. I kept those too. :)
