Note the card says it was "born in 1974" but has an early 90s creed. I like them better with leather patches rather than cloth.

Can you post a picture sometime? I'd love to see it. When I saw this bag I wasn't sure it was Coach at first.
I've never taken a picture of it. It's been sitting forever waiting for me to decide if it needs more rehabbing. It's this bag:

Would you rehab this bag? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Coach-Handb...DX:IT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&rmvSB=true
I've had good luck with cleaning suede but I wasn't sure about these "glue marks?"

No. I have a little bag where the glue somehow leaked through the fabric similarly and I haven't got a clue how to clean it up. If anyone has any ideas I would love some.
Thanks for your reply...will see if anyone has some ideas for suede cleaning...My "go to" has been oxiclean but if it won't touch glue, I probably shouldn't bid on this...Bummer, I love green almost as much as I do red. : )
There is a FS (final sale) stamp on the creed patch along with the bulls eye mark, it was probably sold at the outlet a reduced price because it was flawed, I would give it a pass.

LOL!!!!! I thought it was in pretty good shape but now that it’s in the water, I see some spots I didn’t notice before. >
When I clean lighter color bags, weird spots do seem to emerge. They may or may not recede : / Also, any kind of scratch or scrape becomes visible; don't freak out, most "fade" in the drying process. And as you now know, when wet the camel colors become the most unnatural shade of taupe (or natural shade of puke).Is this good? It’s really tiny but cute.
I just happen to love a Bleeker tote, especially the big sister to yours. I like to call the camel color 'blonde'.

I've been watching this bag also, had it authenticated here and requested the creed picture. There's not an FS stamp but there is a bulls eye mark.
I'm on the fence about if it could be successfully rehabbed. It's an unusual bag.
If it is the same bag I am thinking of then there is an FS stamp, see the pic below, near the bottom left. It's on the opposite side from the bulls-eye mark. I've rotated the auction pic to make it easier to read.
