Hi Authenticators,

Wondering if you can take a look at these listings -

Item: looks like a spectator
Listing number: Vintage Coach Court
Seller and site where listed:maxamum_shoes, Poshmark
Link: https://posh.mk/k14aAL2vpjb

Item: Dinky
Listing number: Vintage Coach Dinky
Seller and site where listed:jeannelynn1984, Poshmark
Link: https://posh.mk/vTsaXQKwpjb

Item: Satchel
Listing number: VTG Bonnie Cashin Small Satchel
Seller and site where listed: patsyp55, Poshmark
Link: https://posh.mk/3HhVcbbxpjb

Thank You for your help!

1- Genuine, but without measurements I don't want to try and guess the style. It has the Spectator trim but it's definitely not a Court bag. It's from the late 1980s, maybe when you receive it you can post measurements.

2- genuine Dinky but absolutely NOT from the Cashin Era, which ended in 1974. This one was made in the early 1990s.

3- genuine, but again, not even close to a Cashin-era bag. It's a remake of what probably was a Cashin design.From the seller's measurements it's a Slim Satchel Large and could have been made from the late 1980s thru about 1992. We just discussed the possibility of an early 1990s remake for the Large version, we know there were Compact versions re-issued in 1991 and 1993. If the seller is a bit off on the height measurement it could even be a Slim Satchel Compact, they were the same length and there was just 2 inches difference in the height.

Now that things here have calmed down a bit from yesterday I decided to try and see what else I could add.

So - the first one MIGHT be a Compartment Bag Spectator, style 6850, if the measurements match Coach's catalog page from 1989. It shows about 9 1/2 x 6 x 2 1/4.


The second one, the 9375 Dinky, also from the 1989 Fall Preview catalog:


and the two Slim Satchels 9425 and 9430 from an early 1980s catalog.I'm still not sure which size it is:


Hope this helps!

I bought a vintage Coach at a yardsale. It looks like it's made before serial numbers and in NYC. I'm pretty sure it's authentic, but it doesn't hurt to double check. Also, if possible does anyone know what kind of Coach bag this is and what year it's made? Measurements: 9" L × 10" H × 5" W

It's authentic and I believe a courier bag. I don't know the year.

Hi Authenticators,

I hope I do this right; first time requesting an item to be authenticated.

Item: Coach 1941 Saddle 23
Listing # - unsure
Seller: melinfam8qwe & Ebay
Link:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/184823763591 hash=item2b085ad287:g:VYIAAOSw~E5glqy9

Per an additional picture from seller to me, this was “made in philippines.” Also per seller, there is no small white tag inside anywhere.

Any help would be appreciated! Thank you so much
