Hi Authenticators- I was wondering if you would help me determine the authenticity of some bags I've picked up at flea markets/yard sales, please? Thanks in advance!
This tan Whitney.

Probably genuine but the creed and serial number details are too worn down to be effective as authentication indicators.

And this watermelon tote. I'm quite sure this one is authentic as it came with the paperwork pictured (the booklet is from 1976). Unfortunately it needs a lot of rehabbing.

Last one- this duffle. This might be outside the scope, so I apologize for that!
Thanks so much!

I'll have to leave this for experts in more recent styles. Please read the instructions in the READ ME post at the top of each page to locate and photograph the small white tag on the inside showing the style number and production codes, and include a close-up of the creed patch so we can see the details.

Hi, I found this bag on Japanese Mercari. I think it's Madison Gathered. Is it authentic?
I would rather not post direct links to the listing because I heard some sellers try to sue when somebody accuse them of selling fakes.

Found this lovely leather clutch in a charity shop, leather is really good quality but needing some TLC, I paid £15 on the basis of the leather quality, but I'm not sure it's authentic - any help welcome.

It's black leather and is 10" x 6" x 1.5" and came with some paper insert in a little bag.20230619_133003.jpg20230619_133042.jpg20230619_133031.jpg20230619_133103.jpg20230619_133216.jpg

Hi there! I purchased this Dinky bag from @modaughtreasures on EBay a little while back. I wanted to see if it was authentic. The listing page is https://www.ebay.com/itm/354839076148
I’m not sure if this still goes through, so I’ve added some pictures I took. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
