I have been lurking here and as a result I have successfully bathed and conditioned two purses! First and foremost, thank you so much to the wonderful people on this forum who are so generous with their assistance and knowledge!

I am now posting because after putting myself through a crash Coach course, I'm concerned that the purses I'm working with, both labeled as being made in the U.S., may not be authentic. If they aren't, I won't be happy about it, but if it helps me learn more about authentication it will have been worth it.

The stitching on the creed seems like it isn't straight enough on the "Sonoma Bag," and on the "City Bag," it seems like the line under the "o" in "No" is too close to the bottom of the N. Also, on the "City Bag," there is a gap on the square brass hardware that attaches the strap to the bag. Could you please take a look at the photos below and let me know what you think?
