I have taken a lot of close-ups of the surface for you - if you look carefully you will see the ISO Pore on many of the scales - this only appears on genuine crocodile skin. ISO is short for the integumentary sensory organ pore. Crocodiles have sensory hairs on their scales that are used to feel their environment. After the hide is tanned the hair is gone but the pore in each scale remains. You can clearly see this on my bag -  this shows that my case is NOT leather which has been impressed with a pattern. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe interior has leather-lined concertina pockets for storing papers, and documents as well. There is a little finger-closing press clasp on the front.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe dimensions are as follows: The width is 12 1\/2 inches.
