Hello, I hope someone will be able to help me identify this item, I tried different searches of course but no luck. TIA

It is an 8 x 10 in. letter portfolio or something similar, I could guess may be early 2000s? I know SLG were make in India and I have seen this liner somewhere else (forgot where sorry). I believe the Coach imprints are correct, but I will post on the Authenticate thread if necessary.

Sorry. I can't help either.

This might be a longshot but I'm wondering if anyone has a catalog that identifies this wallet and if possible, the color. I call the color cordovan but I'm not sure whether that's a Coach color name.

Thanks in advance.

It could be burgundy. It's in my files as 4740. I got it from a listing that had a tag. The closest catalog picture I have is 4640 coin purse wallet. It looks nearly the same but the card pockets are different. The 4640 catalog picture is from 1984, so it was probably made in the late 80s. By 1990, I suspect 4740 was replaced by style #4785, which had more card pockets.

Thank you for the style number. Yes, the color definitely would be burgundy. And the description shows it as being water buffalo leather. (That leather is lovely!)

I recently acquired a vintage coach turnlock wallet with blue-and-white striped lining that has kindly been authenticated by @BeenBurned. In the past, I have heard this type of lining referred to as "mattress-ticking" and it was suggested that similar objects were probably made in the late 1980s, is that information still considered the most likely scenario?

Has anyone ever able to find the name of this style and/or the names of the products? I've looked through the catalog pages without having any luck.

I've been calling it a "Turnlock Flap Wallet" but I don't know the actual name. I think that it's a wallet because it has the stripe-lined zip change compartment and a bill compartment, but there are no slots for an ID or for cards. Also, there's no strap and no place for a strap attachment so it's not a wristlet. But I suppose it could just be called a "case" or a "pouch" instead of a wallet? It measures 7.25" by 4.25" and any information you can share would be greatly appreciated!

More photos are available at the link below, thanks!

It's 7171 turnlock case. These were made up to the early 2000s with the ticking stripe lining. My catalog picture shows it as new in 1996. The color could be bottle green from 1996.

Thank you so much, that's fantastic information!

ETA: I've found it in the 1996 catalogs! I had been looking through the 1980 catalog pages so I missed it, thank you!
