Help required on some older coach Bag IDs / info - ages or eras? thanks in advance for any clues on these. I've included approximate sizes & typed out numbers in case photos aren't clear enough. All bags are in my possession.

Bag ID 1: A dowel top that I've never run into before, black, earlier type number on creed:
approx size 8"w (at widest) x 8"h x 3"deep, #0608-232, "Made in the United States"

Bag ID 2 : Stewardess? - NYC era -- any clues on what this color was called? It looks almost like an Eggplant purple on the exterior, but is quite old so I am guessing darker than it was originally, interior shots may give better idea of color
approx size 10"w x 10"h x 4"deep, #247-9310, "Made in New York City, USA"

Bag ID 3: Bucket or Hobo type Bag, black, NYC era - Style name / era?
approx size 11"w x 13"h x 4" deep, #168-2702, "Made in New York City, USA"

Bag ID 4: Basic Bag? black, Early NYC era with glued in number - any idea on age? BIG Ol' Talon zip :) Really stiff heavy leather -
approx size 11"w x 7"h x 2.5" deep, "#548-0136 Coach® Bag Registration Number", "Made in New York City, USA"

As always thanks,

1- It's called a Post Pouch, style # 9906, probably from around 1991-92

2- Definitely a Stewardess Bag style 9525, from between 1977-1987. Color was probably Burgundy or something similar.

3- The details match a style called the Shoulder Sac style 9730 from around 1987, but the measurements don't. Coach gives that style's measurements as 10.5 x 10.5 x 3.5 and I don't know if Coach may have had a larger version that isn't in my catalogs or if I'm missing the catalogs it may have been in. That's as close as I can come, sorry.

4- Yes, early Basic Bag style 9455 from the mid to late 1970s.
 
Thanks again Hyacinth!

That could very well be it - there are a lot of places to measure on this bag :confused1: and I'm admittedly new at the concept of measuring handbags.. (if it was a flat design piece - now that I understand!)

If I measure across the bottom it is bang on 10.5, and if I measure the bag up to where the strap-holder-thingies start, it's a bang on 10.5. I think I was measuring at highest and widest points - which probably isn't correct.

Thank you so much for all of your help once again -I truly appreciate it so much!

That sounds right. Measuring a bag is never an accurate science, everyone does it differently. Even Coach's own webpage and catalog measurements can vary over time by as much as an inch or more, and the bags themselves haven't gotten any bigger or smaller. Measuring the base usually gives a more practical "wearable" dimension than measuring at the maximum width though and I'm pretty sure that's how Coach does it.
 
I apologize if these are huge! Can anyone tell me the name of this bag? I bought it from the outlet in Orlando in 2008.

Thank you!
 
Hello, ladies! Can you tell me how's this little cross-body called? I know it's from poppy collection - was it an outlet-only version?

Just bought one like this on ebay, would like to find out more about it! :cool:
