I saw a bag today at a flea market that I was unsure of. It was a green with saddle leather trim Coach bag. It looked like a D&B all weather leather bag. It had two tags in saddle leather that said Coach Leatherware. It had a creed with a bullseye that said it was made in the United States(though the top just said Coach and not Coach Leatherware like the tags). Did Coach ever make anything like that? Next time I go I can take a picture of it with my cell phone, but it takes crappy pictures so I am not sure if it would help.
It sounds like one of the Sheridans from the early and mid 1990s. Do you remember if it had a fabric lining? And was there any serial number?
