The Made In USA under the creed helps narrow down the time period to the late 1980s since that wording was only used for a few years.

Thank you all so much for the information!

Comments: I got home late tonight & saw their reply with a better creed photo (attached) so I just made it in time to get my bid in. I never do this without checking here first but I REALLY wanted this Rambler! Fingers crossed & I haven’t paid yet.

It's a genuine Rambler's Legacy made in 2002. "Rambler" without the Legacy part is a different style. I just wanted to clarify that.

Thank you! Would you mind explaining the difference? Is it just down to the year it was made or are there other differences in size, style, etc?

Thank you, Hyacinth! I can't tell if it's yellow or camel. Do you happen to know which color was offered in 1996?

Item:I'm assuming its suppose to be a pouch but I'm only getting leather ones soooo pretty sure it's a fake
Seller: good will
I've gone through alot and haven't seen any post like this so hopefully not a repost.

They're two different styles, the "Legacy" version 9061 came in the late 1990s and was a "tribute" to the earlier Rambler Bag 9735 which was a 1980s-early 1990s style (probably from 1986 to 1991 but with a few later remakes). The original was much larger and had different details such as an extended tab turnlock. Click on the thumbnails to open them.

If there's no place to attach a wrist strap it's a genuine style 9836 Turnlock Clutch from the late 1980s or early 1990s.

Hello authenticators. I’d love your opinion on this lunchbox purse. One of the small leather pieces holding the long strap buckle is loose/broken.

Thanks in advance!!

Sorry, it's VERY fake. Get your money back. It's illegal for anyone including non-profit organizations to sell counterfeits in the US.

The style was never made by Coach and neither was that print. The turnlock is wrong, the lining is wrong and C linings shouldn't be inside any kind of C pattern bag. The serial number is much too short, all of the date and plant codes are missing. There's nothing on that bag that matches a genuine Coach.

Always authenticate Coach items here before buying. Goodwill along with other sites and stores has a poor reputation for spotting and removing fakes.

It's genuine, but it's a 9991 Lunch Box Zip, not a Hadley Bag. Made in 1996.

Thanks you, no place to attach a wristlet strap.
