No this is too big a job for me, no time! I do quickie touch ups, nothing like this.
Will leave it to someone else more ambitious, just wanted to be sure it is authentic
before anyone uses their elbow grease.
I HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTEEEE ink!
Is ink really hard to remove? I have seen a lot of lovely looking white coach bags, but they are all usually covered in pen. :(
 
Hi ladies,

Please take a look at the following 2:

Comment: Is the stitching at the left upper corner of the creed normal? It seems not carefully done, but might be OK?

Thanks ladies!

I don't see any problems with the creeds. Almost all Sonomas seem to have sloppy creeds. But the first one has the wrong style number!
 
I agree 100%. I wish there was something I could do to repay their kindness. I am blown away - their feedback has been so useful and has helped me score a few awesome bags!

A simple family car would be nice!

Seriously, it's nice to know we're appreciated!

Just a car? No problem. Something can definitely be arranged. Do any of these fit with what you're looking for?

(Personally, I would have asked for a really expensive handbag, but to each their own!):

Now...I am off to search for my vintage black Willis bag! Wish me luck.:doggie:

I think there's a Fly Yellow Dino 246 GTB over on the left with my name on it... :D
 
So the first one is a fake? What should be the correct style number? Thanks!
I'm not that familiar with the style to know if there is anything else wrong with it. It is possible that the factory could have put the wrong creed in it but unlikely. You have a heck of a time proving it was authentic if you tried to sell it. It looks like it should be style number #4925.
 
I just bought it. It is a much lighter green, definitely not that dark as shown...Is there a place to look for the brochures?

I don't have a catalog from that time and it isn't on the wayback machine. Someone else might. There was a lime green, sea, and aqua, but I think the aqua was only available in nubuck, so it is probably sea.
