Well I looked at your link but that isn't either one of the bags I asked about. I do see how I may have been overlooked as the pictures are similar but by someone else and about another bag. I posted pictures of a black Legacy(?) and a red Hobo bucket (?) with creed #' G1D-9058 and D1D-9823. I don't know how to link to those pictures but they were posted right before the one you posted this link to. :-)

Comments: I do not know this style and there is no creed pic, when asking for one, I never got it, but she says it's from the 60's. :smile1:

We need to see the area on the back inside panel where the creed stamp normally would be to see if there's anything indicating the bag is a Coach and from what time period it is.

Unfortunately without some kind of permanent mark or emblem there's no way to verify that it's even a Coach product - a hangtag just isn't enough. And there was nothing else marked on Coach bags from the days before plaques or creeds that can prove authenticity. Any well-made generic bag could pass for a Coach - counterfeiting them was almost unheard-of, and although it's a style Coach probably made back then it's almost certain that other companies did too.

Buyers pretty much have to trust to luck and the honesty of the seller.

It looks genuine but I can't quite identify it. From the pictures and the seller's measurements it's just a bit too square to be a Classic Shoulder Bag which is the closest style to this one. But it was made between the mid to late 1970s and about 1897.

Item: Coach Saddle Bag Rare 70's
Seller: Magnolia Vintage Co.

Comments: Your Help is always appreciated. Is this authentic and also is it a Cashin style? I asked for a better creed pic and she sent it right away, I just don't know how to paste here, but the creed is here: https://www.etsy.com/conversations/image?convo_id=78385944&image_id=16610421&image_type=full

Thanks in advance as always!:smile1:

BTW - I was refunded for my fake, but sadly it's back on Ebay for twice the amount.....WOW:cursing:

It may have been designed while Cashin worked for Coach, but from the creed it was made after she'd left. The bag is a genuine Courier Pouch, style 8920.

Oh NOW I see it!!! Must be going blind in my old age! Thank you so much Hyacinth. You are amazing and so kind and patient with people like me. LOL. Thank you for authenticating, naming and dating my bags. I do appreciate the time all of you ladies donate to help us to keep from buying or selling fake Coach items. :-)
