Hi, here is another find- I'd appreciate authentication and an id! It measures 12" W x 11" H x 5" D.

Last, but not least...this one may be a long shot, but it was CHEAP...
Approx. 11"w x 14.25"h x 2.25"d. The business card pocket doesn't really bulge outward on the sides...it's the camera. I have a Coach daytimer cover that also has a KRAUSE binder, so I took a chance for $.75. Haven't found one like it anywhere...any and all info is much appreciated. Thanks so much for looking at all of these!

Seems ok but I don't know what it was called or when it would have been made.

I have concerns. The font on the creed and number doesn't match any authentic creeds I have from that plant. Every authentic version I can find of this style was made in Costa Rica, later than yours. The style was introduced for Holiday 1998 so a 1997 production date is possible but somewhat unlikely. All the Costa Rican bags I've seen were made in late 1998.

The stamping on the snap doesn't match any authentic snaps I've seen. I have a picture of a fake snap in my files. I can't read the writing on it, but it appears to have writing in the same places as on yours. The authentic snaps I've seen from this time period, including one I own, have the words "USA PAT and others" along with a number and a symbol. You can see it in the next to last picture of this listing: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Coa...991?pt=US_CSA_WH_Handbags&hash=item1e91bcee5f

The shape of the tabs for the strap look uneven and the stitching on them is very sloppy.

Here's the original ebay listing if anyone feels like reporting it. I was wrong, there is a creed shot.

Whateve, I notice it has two rivets joining the strap.

I noticed that too! This one has a made in US creed so that helps prove that they modified the design after they realized that one rivet wasn't enough. I also find it interesting that the rivets are flat or slightly bumped up. I looked all over trying to find concave rivets to match the broken rivet on mine and finally had to settle for a flat rivet.
