Hi, all! I found this goodie at a thrift store and am wondering if it's authentic. Since it's so small, I had a really, really hard time getting a photo of the creed and serial number. It appears to say Made in New York City as well.

Let me know what you think. Maybe I have a treasure!

If it measures about 7.5" x 8" it's an authentic Compact Pouch, #9620. Nice find!

You did a great job getting the pictures. The bag is authentic. Remember that for bags with unique serial numbers, we need measurements to identify. This is probably a compact pouch 9620, if it is around 8 x 7.5 inches.

Thank you, whatev! I knew you'd know! [emoji4] Here's a couple of other photos

Do you know approximately when this was made?

You're welcome! Probably mid to late 80s. They made this style off and on up through 2000. There was an earlier style that had a removable strap. The tubular strap came later.

Awesome! Thanks for the info. She's joining my other vintage gals!

INCREDIBLY bad fake - not only badly made of cheap materials and very poor construction, but also has an invalid serial number. It's a $20 Canal Street Special, and even $20 would have been too much to pay - the only thing its suited for is for picking up after it when you walk your dog. And I bet even the dog would be embarrassed to be seen with it.

DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM thnxfrthvenom

Item: Hudson pocket zip
Seller: Savers (in my possession)
Comments: After deciphering K3H-6802, these trouble me: H plant code, no tumbling wording in creed, the font of the style #, shall I go on, lol???

The "Hudson" is fake, for the reasons you already mentioned. And that style had been discontinued long before 2003. I bet that the magnetic snap doesn't have a valid US Patent number either.

The others are ok. Style 9227 is an Ergo Retro Zip.
