No way! Even with all the terrible news in the headlines every day, the Old Traditions must be carried on. We need SOMETHING to laugh about.

I hope you made a VERY strong wager with your spouse, because whatever he bet you, he owes you. It's a genuine Bleecker Satchel and made in 2000. That extra hyphen is found in many genuine Coaches especially from the "D" plant in 2000 and even 2001.

Good morning. I would appreciate an authentification of this bag.

Thanks for your time.

Sorry, we must have missed this one somehow. It's been very busy here lately.

It's a genuine Saddlery Bag, style 9535 and from the mid-1980s. Here's a page from a 1986 catalog:

Hello friends could you please look at this bag I purchased at local thrift store. -#5266
13" tall by 16 3/4" wide by 7" deep

Apologies for the wait. It's a genuine Beekman Brief from 1997.

Comment:
Can you authenticate this duffle sac and also tell me what year it may have been made? Seller says it's Navy, but upon arrival, I believe its gray! It has gray threading and its the same color as my #7171! But I did not know Coach made gray duffle sacs! If so, what's the name of the color? I do know its not dark Navy.
Thank you

Took some more pictures ...

Since colors almost never reproduce on a computer or camera the same way they look to the human eye, I won't try to guess a color. The bag looks like gray or black in the seller's photos and brown in yours but I don't remember Gray being an available color between 1990 and 1993 but I could be wrong. Colors can look different after a vintage bag has been washed and conditioned.

The Duffle Sac is genuine, from the early 1990s.

This was my first vintage coach thrift store find, and I'm second guessing it. Can you let me know? Serial number is hard to read in photographs (just like my previous fake I purchased), but it's H5D-9975. Fingers crossed !! Thank you!!!
