Bought this today in a local thrift shop. Dear authenticators, could you please confirm it’s authentic, and what’s this style called/ how old is it? Thanks in advance.

In my possession, about 10 x 8.5 x 1.5



There is also a semi-faded stamp “irregular” to the right of the creed, you can see a piece of it in the picture

It's a genuine Saddle Pouch Large, style 9585 and made some time around the mid-1980s, so it's at least 30 years old. The "irregular" stamp was done by Coach if there was a small flaw that they felt didn't justify selling the bag for full price. It was probably a way to offer a discount in the days before Coach had outlet stores. Of all the "irregulars" I've seen I've never been able to spot any obvious problems.

Here's a thumbnail of the two sizes available in late 1987:

 

[Minchanka]

Thank you very much. I see something that might have been an original stitching defect on the inside flap, but given the age of the bag, all bets are off.

There was no tag in the bag. Only the small white one, says made in China.

That's the one she's talking about. (It's not necessary to show it at this point, but in the future, please include that pic too.)

That's the one I was talking about, but it isn't white. You can see it in your picture. It is dark brown.

I didn't go back and look at her pictures but that wristlet is supposed to have a brown made in tag. It's also shown in the other listing I'd posted for the same item.

I can't read the full serial number but it looks good.

 

[SEWDimples]

I can't read the full serial number but it looks good.

Thanks @BeenBurned! When I blow the picture of the creed on my computer, I can see the complete number.

 

[BeenBurned]

Thanks @BeenBurned! When I blow the picture of the creed on my computer, I can see the complete number.

I can see that the full number is there. I just can't read the style number because it's too dark and all I can read is the first "9"

We need to see the underside of the female part of the turnlock. I'd also like to see the bottom of the case and the inside.
