Hi all! I found a vintage leather coach bag at the thrift store that appears to be made somewhere between 1980-1994 based on the serial number, but I can’t find any others like it online. Wondering if anyone can help provide more information! :) I have all of my photos uploaded to an imgur album:

It's a genuine Columbus Bag, style 4119 from the West End Lightweights line and made around 1992-93. Click on the thumbnail to open, pic is from the 1992 Holiday Preview catalog.

What are you waiting for??? I can't take this suspense!
Sorry for the tense moments lol. I am physically at work now so I had to keep checking in when I could to see if she opened the listing up again or not. I just bought it after noodling with making an offer. It was more than I intended to pay but less than that faded one you returned that wound up on Etsy for $319. Thanks again @whateve
