Hi, haven’t been here in a long time. I’m looking for a website that had a list of vintage names and numbers. I came in to possession a few vintage bags I can’t find online. Anyone know what I’m talking about? 
Specifically, the numbers are 5021, 8007 and 2809. Thank you!
Specifically, the numbers are 5021, 8007 and 2809. Thank you!The one I'm thinking of was a blog which might not still exist. It's probably easier to ask here unless you want to look through the catalog thread.Hi, haven’t been here in a long time. I’m looking for a website that had a list of vintage names and numbers.

ETA: you can do a search of the forum with the style number and you'll probably find the name in some of the posts that come up.
Hi! Wondering if I can get an ID on this bag? It very much gives Courier vibes but no “tongue.” Measures 9.75” wide x 8” tall x 4” deep. The strap is very short, otherwise I’d think it was a Patricia. It measures 36.5” end to end.

It’s been a few years but I just saw this article and I guess I do have a sample bag! I still have this one and carry it when I need a sturdy and large work tote. Just wanted to pass along this link. https://essexfashionhouse.com/blogs/news/coach-sample-bags-your-chance-to-own-something-special
This doesn’t quite look the same as I remember but here’s a reference listing that someone might find helpful: http://coachbagrehab.blogspot.com/2012/05/coach-style-numbers-and-photos.html?m=1
1970s-80s Classic Shoulder Bag maybe? I was a tad conservative on my measurements.

Yes, it's a classic pouch also known as a classic shoulder bag.
Experts, ShopGoodwill is calling this a Madison satchel. My vintage Madison doesn't look like this!
I'm sort of fascinated and repulsed by the very visible zipper on this thing. It's quite un-Coachlike to these inexpert eyes.
Or maybe it's a really....er....*interesting* zipper repair?
So many questions: is this authentic? Repaired creatively, perhaps? If real, is it a variation of a Madison, or does this style have its own name?

It's not a Madison. It's a similar style called a classic satchel. Here's a picture that shows them side by side. It's authentic.Experts, ShopGoodwill is calling this a Madison satchel. My vintage Madison doesn't look like this!

Thank you so much! I've never seen or heard of a Classic Satchel before this.
That zipper style is found on a few satchels, larger bags, I think mostly brief bag styles. Since it allows the zipper to move down the side of the bag a little, it makes it easier to get larger items in and out and helps to avoid what I call knuckle scraping.Experts, ShopGoodwill is calling this a Madison satchel.

At your convenience, could you please help me identify this bag? I have looked at the catalogs going 1994 backwards but I couldn't find it, it is similar to the Standard Clutch, but this one has the detachable strap. Size is about 11.5 x 8 x 2 inches. Zippered pocket and open pocket.
TIA

I don't have a catalog picture but I think it could be 9840 zip clutch.
Thank you so much for your help, so early 90s perhaps?
Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas! whateve and the rest of the members
