This one was too good to pass up. From the same Goodwill as the brown one I posted a couple of days ago. Also a 1998 Soho Buckle bag in black. It was at the store when I bought the brown one, marked $19.99. Went back and found it marked down to $12.99!

That might be me. I dunked and cleaned up a burgundy Sonoma Nubuc backpack. I keep meaning to post after pics on the rehab thread but I haven't quite finished as I was waiting to get some dye to cover a rubbed area. I got the dye yesterday so will post soon. The handle cleaned up really well as did the lining.

Hi there! I see you rehabbed a nubuck Sonoma bag. I would love to see pictures and if you have any advice for me as my Sonoma Nubuck flap bag is drying... I'm hoping I got all the marks off and don't have to dunk and scrub again.

Anyway, any advice you have would be greatly appreciated.

I've hit a nice Coach Leatherware streak lately at Goodwill. A 1989-90 Spectator Compartment Bag #6850 and a mid to late 80's Handle Portfolio #5050 together (with a $5 off coupon) for under $45!

I bought a Coach briefcase new in the mid 80s, probably 1984 or 1985. It is very similar to your Portfolio. Mine's number is 9528. When I google that number, nothing comes up, so I wonder if it is instead a unique number. It is made in NYC, and the number is not glued in. At that time I think it cost around $150. (A basic bag then cost around $70).

If the 9528 number is part of the serial number and it's a NYC bag then it's part of a unique serial number and NOT the style number of the bag. Style numbers weren't part of the serial number until 1994.

The Salearea Guides have more information on creeds and serial numbers:

The first one may well be my "find of the year"!!! A 1960's-ish, pre-creed, double kisslock bag for $19.99. Then a 1992-ish Coach Leatherware Fulton Bag...super, heavy-weight leather, also $19.99.
