@Yaamcakes -- Remember to include the seller ID in each request.

Bag 1 seller is Vintage Nook
Bag 2 seller is carlsvintage

Both sellers are located in Florida and in further digging, I've concluded that they're one and the same or working together.

What I can't understand is why he/she/they would run multiple listings for the same items and take separate sets of pictures!

No serial number. Looks like a Sheridan bag?

It's a genuine Dakota Rider Bag, that's the line that came right before the Sheridans. This is a style 4200 and would have been made in 1991 and 1992, right at the end of the time period when Coach was still using a few Solid Brass buckles for some Dakotas.

I shared the link before, 3 pics, no creed, not enough pics to authenticate! Now the bag is in hand and ready to rehab! Here are my own pics. Please confirm if authentic, and an extra thank you if you can identify the style. I think it's an "oliver." Thank you!!

Authentic. It is an Oliver. You can tell by those distinctive sides. It's missing the zipper pull.
