Can anyone tell me what colors the Ramblers legacy came in during 1998 & 1999. My daughter just re-discovered hers from back then & says it is not gray or brown, maybe taupe? It has nickel hardware. Did it come in taupe with nickel hardware? Thank you.

Not sure what this bag would be called. It's Pre Creed with just the "coach" name embossed, so does that make it a Cashin era bag? it's about 10"w x 9"h x 4.5d" Thanks so much!

You may have already seen this but a bag that looks very similar to yours in brown is up for sale on ebay for $300! The brown is gorgeous but the green is even more special. You got a great deal, congratulations!

I did notice that (and it made me feel a bit better about my price tag considering Green is one of my fave colors to wear) ...I even almost sent her a PM asking her if there's any paperwork telling her a name for this bag but I figured she'd have mentioned it if there was a name. :smile1: I think the strap is a little different and she gives a slightly different measurement for her bag, but we all know how widely varied people's measurements are on purses.

With only one or two catalogs from each year it's very hard to find records of all the colors that were available since by that time Coach was changing the colors every season. I've checked the few books I have and can't find Taupe so maybe I don't have the one that was published at the time she bought the bag.

The only year I'm sure about Taupe being an available color was 1995. If you can post serial number of the bag with the year code, that would help narrow it down.

Thank you for looking into this, Hyacinth. I'll ask her for the serial number this weekend.

Less of a help identifying a mystery bag, but more curious if there is a different color combination available.

I have two of the Mercer #5419 multifunctional / diaper / laptop bags, one No. C2J-5419 and one No. E2J-5419. Each have looked like they had nickel hardware in photos, but arrived with gunmetal. To me it seems that there are other items from the same era that have the leather-trimmed black twill and nickel hardware. I have several Mercer travel and accessory pieces, all of which have the nickel.

I am curious of this bag came BK/SV instead of BK/GM. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I recently found a Mercer Computer Tote at the thrift store and it has gunmetal hardware but it is missing the hangtag. My bag is number 5117 but I think they came in different sizes. Hyacinth authenticated it for me and kindly provided a catalog picture; see the link below:

I believe they used the silver abbrievation for brushed silver a lot of times. If they did not offer plain silver, they used silver for the brushed silver.
