When they first started using some of those snaps, the patent information was on a separate sticker, which probably fell off the bag over time.

I remember seeing the patent number stickers on a few ultra-vintage bags but not on the China-made ones. Thanks, Whateve!

ETA - this is the only mag snap label I remember seeing so far, from a 1992 Mulberry Bag:

It's authentic, made in 2010.

The item number is shown on the right side of the listing below the seller info. This is necessary because if listings have already ended or if it was removed for some reasons, a different listing may come up in its place. We want to be sure we're looking at the right item.

Thank you so much for the information about both the bag and listing number.

Would you please authenticate this Satchell bag? My husband brought it home from his boss. Boss said wife never used it so it's new. Just want to make sure it's authentic. It appears to have never been used. Thank you. About 10.5 x 10.5 x 3"

I know you guys are probably tired of me and my weird patch marketing tote but I found this one on Etsy. Did Coach experiment with certain bags? The stamp on my tote looks like a cartouche stamp. The listing on esty is a "Unique White Coach Marketing Tote. " I've included a few pictures of this tote. I'm really stumped. Thank you View attachment 5093794View attachment 5093795View attachment 5093796View attachment 5093797View attachment 5093798
The bag on etsy is authentic, although I believe the snaps were added after market.
Again, wait for Whateve to come back from vacation. I have no experience with that style or its history, all I can tell you is that it looks authentic. Or ask at the Vintage Chat thread as I suggested before.

For the bag with the glued in creed, I'm seeing an issue. Can you take pictures of the ends of the zippers, showing the end of the pockets?
 
Hi, I purchased this Coach? and wanted to know if it is authentic and what is its name? I know there was a vintage double kiss lock, but this is different. It measures approximately 5 3/4" x 31/2" x 6". Thank you in advance for any assistance you can give.

When and where did you buy it, and is there a link to an online listing?

It's definitely NOT vintage but it's genuine. It was made in 2008 and was probably one of a family of bags called Bonnie that were updates of Bonnie Cashin styles, but that's all I can tell you. There's one in a different color listed on Ebay as "double frame kisslock" which sounds like a valid Cashin description:
13765 Bonnie leather small frame bag.
