Gucci Bamboo Top-Handle Club: 1947 'till now

I’m so happy to found this club!

I just bought a beautiful vintage Gucci bamboo bag, everything about it looks authentic I have no reason to think otherwise but no serial number, can anyone please help me about the age of the bag.

Passed down from a family friend who passed .. I believe this to be one of the early made bags.. I have tried to do research on this bag but I have found little information on the bags made in the 40’s..
since these bags didn’t have tags I am “assuming” that the number is a production number ?? Maybe .. can anyone shed some light ..
it has the Echt 0 prym which I have found was the snap used of the 40’s

Building my luxury bag collection, and the Gucci bamboo top handle is at the top of my wish list. I'm waiting for a color like this or similar. Or do you guys recommend black?View attachment 3835631
I just scored this beauty last week for $1000 in perfect condition. The color is to die for, goes with anything, and it holds everything I need!! Easy to get into as well.
 
That is gorgeous! This bag shape is very classic and very Gucci
Oh my goodness, thank you!! At the moment, this is my very favorite bag!! She holds everything I need in a very organized way - I can’t explain how nicely and conveniently. The size and interior are perfect, Just super easy to carry and use. I like her better than any Chanel or Louis Vuitton I have so far.

No, the number is the craftsperson. It's very late 1960s/early 1970s. This Modern minimalist rounder shape was only introduced in the mid-1960s.
