Item: Small Black Zip Pouch
Seller: Goodwill ($1.00)
Dimensions: 7.5 in x 4.5 in
Comments: This little zip pouch has a creed but no style number and it doesn't have a hangtag or a small, inside tag. The creed is puffy so that caused some doubt in my mind, but it seems very well made, and the fancy stitching reminded of the old Hamptons bags, so I figured for $1.00 it was worth taking a chance.

Please give an opinion on authenticity. I had a hard time getting a pic of the creed and these are the best I've managed, but if you need better let me know and I will try again. Thanks!

Item: Bleecker Embossed Woven Clutch (51640 SV CRV, Silver, Bright Mandarin White)
Seller: Hospital Charity Gift Shop ($10, MSRP = $218 in 2014)
Dimensions: 8 in tall, 10.5 in wide, 2 in deep

Comments: This bag doesn't have a creed or a hangtag, just a little "Made in China" tag but it is very distinctive and looks like other examples on ebay; please give an opinion about authenticity, thank you!

Both look fine!

Thanks so much for confirming my impressions that these 2 items are genuine. Even when I am almost 100% sure I feel better having an expert opinion because I have been fooled before!
 
I've requested a copy of the creed and will post when I get it. Can this be a Court bag? All the ones I've seen had a turnlock.

Comments:

If authentic, it would be a Crosby. This style was just discussed on the Vintage chat thread, I think. I don't have one or have pictures of what the interior should look like, so I can't say if there are any problems.

This zipper pull might be a problem. (Or it might have been replaced.)

The strap hardware does not look right either:
