It looks like a briefcase made probably in the 80s. Measurements might help in coming up with a name.

You're welcome. It's not a station bag; those are much smaller. I don't know what it is. Hopefully, someone else will chime in.whateve,
Sorry, I forgot to include that in my question. It is almost 12" wide and 9" tall.
On Google Images, I have found a few bags that look just like this one, and are called Station Messenger Bags.
Thanks!
You copied down the number wrong. The style number should be 15409. It's a Mia carryall. You really should include a copy of the creed in your listing.Style # H10073-15400

Thanks! Got it at Macys a few years ago before I became informed here
Thank you! I searched for both #s and didn't get any hits with either. Its so hard to see black creed numbers... I could not get a photo to turn out of the creed. I'm not great with the online auction stuff - but would try to send it to anyone who wanted to see it.
You're welcome. You might be able to pull the creed out of the purse to get a better photo. Sometimes they work better with flash, sometimes better without flash but with light shining on the creed.
Something else to try is to very lightly rub or brush a tiny bit of very light or light frosted powder eyeshadow over the creed and number, then carefully wipe off the excess so that the light powder stays inside the stamped numbers and letters but not on the higher unstamped leather. That might highlight the stamping enough to be able to read and photograph it.
One of my programs is blocking images from that site. If someone can take a large screencap of the photo(s) and post them here or at Photobucket or another hosting site, I'll see if I can find it.
ETA - Just wondering - could this tan School Bag from 1986 be it?

Aha! I had that in my files, but I couldn't find it! I thought it would have a number starting with 5 like most briefcases.
Hyacinth,
That's it! You found it! Thanks everyone!
The number on my bag is confusing, though.
Vintage bags made before 1994 DON'T have the style number in the serial number. Check the Salearea Guides at Ebay for a full explanation of Coach creeds and serial numbers:
