I know this is a little off topic but am I the only one who asks questions of Station 85 on eBay and never gets a response? Also has anyone else noticed that they never put in a clear photo of a Coach bag's creed?

Any comments on this one ladies? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Genuine, probably a Slim Satchel 9425 from sometime around the late1970s. I don't think it was a Cashin design, but Whateve might know for sure.

It's fine.

Placing a bid! I won the the Willis bag and the court bag that I asked you all to authenticate for me. Thanks!

Genuine Baxter Bag from 1994 and a genuine Willis Bag from 1993

Yay! Thanks Hyacinth! I'm so excited, I've been wanting a Baxter ever since I saw someone in the rehab thread's avatar picture tied with a colorful scarf! Both she, and whoever had the rehab thread about a $3 navy tribeca wallet from salvation army are directly responsible for my coach problem.

Looks OK to me!

Thanks, Hyacinth…happy weekend!

Buying and rehabbing classic Coaches is seriously addictive. There should be some kind of warning posted at the top of the forums.

Thanks so much Hyacinth! Last couple of years I've been a vintage dooney fan, but vintage coach is my new passion!

It's genuine, but there's no way to be sure what style it is without actual measurements.

I actually received the same wallet years ago and passed it over to my friend. I'm asking her to check if she still has the wallet and box to see if there's a style number, etc. If I recall it had the blue and white ticking for the lining. But I couldn't be for certain that it was authentic. Will try to post pictures if my friend still has it.

I'd appreciate that. Ticking lining makes more sense than that random fabric.

Could you check inside each wallet to see if there is a stamp showing where they were made? Usually it is hidden under a fold.

I’d be grateful for authentication of these 3 thrifted finds. Thank you so much!

First one:

Item: pre-creed Courier
Dimensions: 10W, 10H, 4D
Seller: Estate sale

 

[Ravvie99]

Second one…

Item: Stewardess
Dimensions: 11W, 10H, 4D
Seller: Goodwill
Comments: Should I be concerned about the silvery-ness of some of the grommets? The strap buckle and turnlock appear to be brass (hit them with steel wool/brasso).

 

[Ravvie99]

Last one…Thank you again!

Item: Small frame pouch
Dimensions: 9W, 8.5H, 1(top) – 3(bottom) deep
Seller: Goodwill

Thanks Hyacinth! Excellent point about measurements and style.
