Cool Thanks for the help, one more question, were there 2 sizes of the Amanda Hobo that year? I still have the tag and stuff and it's a true coach but the others i have seen with that name have 2 inside pockets on one side and the zippered one on the other. Mine only has the zippered one.

I don't know. Usually in smaller purses, Coach only puts one pocket.

Hi, can any of you help identify the model of this bag:

I purchased this little crossbody about 20 years ago. The color looks like Camel or pale Taupe turned grungy with age (even after a bath). I suspect it belonged to the old “Lightweights” collection but I could be wrong. Besides the name of the bag, I’m interested in identifying the original colors it came in. I'd like to dye it a darker color that’s authentic to the style/collection at the time.

Dimensions: Approx. 8.25"L x 6"H x 2.5"W. Strap drop is 23"
Details: Registration no. 0571-217. Made in the United States.
Skinny strap is sewn onto sides of the bag. No exterior pockets. One open-flap pocket inside. Suede (unlined) interior. Brass or brass-tone zipper (no visible stamp.) Missing zipper pull tab.

Thank you for your help.

It's called a Kimball Zip, style 9911 frrom around 1992. The color might be either Camel or Stone, maybe someone else will be able to tell which one. It's not from the Lightweights line.

Thanks, Hyacinth. With the information you gave me, I was able to find other examples of the bag in Black, Red and British Tan. I'm thinking old Ms. Grungy is about to get a tan. :smile1:

Are these both the same? they have the same creed. The pictures in the first one are much clearer than the second, but I think they are the same. Interestingly the second sold for 10% of the cost of the first. Am I missing the difference?

I found it interesting that a lined older bag went for so much because collectors usually like the unlined ones. I think in this case, it is because the bag has such an interesting patina and I don't know if it really looks like that or if the photos just make it look like that.
