It doesn't make sense to use" rubber" or nitrile rubber or neoprene (although neoprene would make a really good but overly expensive bag) First off, nitrile and neoprene ARE rubber, and as far as it 'not making sense', I beg to differ.... the method of manufacturing polymers with fabrics is age-old and maybe it would be an expensive option by today's standards, but in Packard's day, especially when plastics and vinyls were in their infancy, cloth inserted rubber was very common. I spent my working life in rubber manufacturing and cloth inserted rubber is still readily available both in bulk sheet and in many products on the market today. Chris

vinyl was mainstream and commonly commercial by then. Calendared vinyl was used in interiors of Packards by then
