  • EX SQ Raffles Class Gifts- Anyone know where I can find them?

    Hello fellow SQTalkers
    I have been searching for sometime now, a particular item which i believe used to be given to Raffles Class pax as a gift, Ive searched bidding websites such as Ebay, done searches through other means such as Google and Yahoo with very few results. I once saw the item being sold on ebay but was outbid (earlier this year). From the information I have found, this particular Mens wallet was a design from Pierre Cardin. I have attached a photo, the only one i have of what im looking for. I'm hoping those SQTalkers which have been members of the PPS club (Solitaire and Life) would come forward with futher information, I have only been flying with SQ for the past few years and reached Silver Elite as my highest level. I was told by the Ebayer selling this wallet that he was given it around 10-15 years ago, maybe that explains why they are so hard to come across now. Any information would be great.
    Thanks for you time Fellas

    When I flown long haul SQ Business Class in the 80's & 90's, especially 742 & 743 on SQ2/1 SIN<=>HKG<=>HNL<=>SFO I got many kinds of these gifts: Ashtray, Bone China, Chopsticks, Clock, Coin Bag, Diary (Pocket / Management), Frame, Key Chain Holder, Leather Wallet, Radio, Scarf, Umbrella, etc.. But since my garage are full of other items, my wife demand me to dump most of the airliners stuff so I sold it via one of the "Airliner Collectible Show" in SFO since 2005. It's cheaper to get stuff from these shows rather than eBay.

    There are many other shows around the states & Canada every year.

    SFO in Mar & Sep every year:

      SQtalker, the problem is i live in Australia so it wouldn't be possible to attend such a venue. Do you recall seeing such an item in the past?

        If you can't go to the states, the nearest one is in SYD:
