Item: Vintage coach purse crossbody black Gray
Listing number: 295068844452
Seller and site where listed: moll_mcdow on eBay
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/295068844452
Comments:
- no measurements but looks like a Compact Pouch style 9620, seen as early as 1981 catalog (was that style released any earlier?)
- do you think this is “grey”, or very faded black? I have a feeling it is very faded, but I saw in the reference catalogs that Flannel Grey was a color offered starting around 1987? But with the creed saying Made in New York City and the serial number not following XXXX-XXX, this would make me think this is possibly just a very faded black bag since the creed style pre-dates when I found Flannel Grey to start being offered as an option.
Would be curious if anyone would be able to please authenticate, thank you in advance :)

Apologies on any confusion I have about when it may have been made and the color. I’m trying to learn, but recently found out some sites have outdated/not reliable information. (I was trying to cross-reference that info with the catalog images found here in tPf, so I understand I may be totally off base with trying to determine potential year/color)

It's authentic and does appear to be style 9620 Compact Pouch from the early 80s.

I'm not guessing on the color.
