Hello again, after passing on the bag I asked yesterday, today I bought one in.... Goodwill! :smile1:

Another thanks due to you ladies, why didn't I think before of finding old Coach bags there? Anyway (if I am doing my research right), this is not vintage yet but OK 2001 seems to be my year, LOL. Also when I saw made in Costa Rica, I didn't run away I remember reading some bags were made there. Well... it looks good to me but I am no expert of course, so... do I keep it or do I take it back? It's a petite bag, like 10x6x3 inches.

The name is bigger than the bag itself.

It's a Bonnie's Legacy Linen Canvas Small Zip Satchel. The Bonnie's Legacy line was created for Spring 2001 as a salute to Bonnie Cashin who had died a year earlier, in February 1990.

Authentic. I think it is from the early 60s. This is one of the first fabric linings Bonnie Cashin used when she first started working for Coach.

I agree, this one is fine. I often don't remove the plastic off the hardware on my new bags until it falls off. Sometimes I don't realize it is there.
