Ugh, cannot find a button like this on the net too.. Not sure how to list this if I sell it, or if it's worth a lot of $ or a phony! But, how can something this old be fake? Confused. lol

Well, the only thing that is (certainly) Burberry about it is the Blue label at the neck.

All other tags and labels are not right for Burberry, buttons and content tag, toggles not right. Size tag not right for Burberry

Maybe the Burberry label was sewn onto the coat. What do you think?

(I would not sell it on ebay - I would return it to the store.) I think you have a stronger case to sell it as a Henry White Man coat.

Can I sell it on ebay listed as a Henry White man coat and state that it's unknown why the burberry label is there and state that I'm not calling it authentic? or rip the label off? I bought it at a thrift store, can't return it. The coat has nice material, I think it can sell as an henry (hopefully make my money back)

I found a similar label here
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HENRY-WHITE...pt=UK_Men_s_Coats_Jackets&hash=item4acc4a6c68

I think the age of it is interesting. My guess is that someone added the label at a later date.

Nice find! Yeah, the age is interesting. I'm just not sure why someone would take the time to stitch a burberry label on it, being a vintage henry white. I looked closer on the burberry stitching, it's something I could never accomplish as the stitching is pretty good, but the stitches are not so close together. You may be right on that. I think I may just list it as a Henry White Man wool/cashmere blend coat with an uknown burberry label and state I am not claiming it to be authentic in any way. Maybe it will get bid on by someone whom likes the material (it does feel nice)

Hi guys!

Could you help to authenticate this Burberry Haymarket Medium Tote (Chocolate) which I've gotten off Surprisel? Was kinda worried because I was only given a general care card and a-seemingly-ripped-off-pricetag. No authenticity cards... :nogood:

Item Name: Haymarket Medium Canterbury Tote (Chocolate) 3741797

Hello!
Okay I now took some pictures that you should be able to read of the tags. I'm glad to hear they have made this tag for the super nova. Is the super nova not in production anymore? I have not seen it online or on ebay so I have had nothing to compare. Are you positive that this type of label could be in the super nova? Again I only ask because I want to make sure that it's genuine. Do the stitchings and the lining of the two bags check out okay? I want to make sure they are 100% authentic without a doubt or I don't want them. Also is it normal for the pilgrim to come apart alittle like it has on the strap? Thank you again for help. It means a lot to me!
Here's the link again with more pictures
