We need more than one photo to identify an older Coach. Please post pictures or links to pictures of the front, the back with the bag turned a bit sideways so we can see the strap mountings, and a clear large readable photo of the creed stamp and serial number inside the bag. We also need measurements of all the bags. Thanks!

Thank you Hyacinth!
I took more pictures and measured the bags.
The first bag measures 12x9x6 with 19" strap drop:

Thanks for the extra photos. They're all genuine.

The first one is a Delancey Drawstring from the Lightweight line, style number 4122 and probably made in 1992 or 1993.

The second is a Basic Bag, style number 9455. It's impossible to date accurately but it was probably made between about 1980 and 1987.

The third looks like a Pocket Purse, style 9755, made between 1990 and 1993.

#2 is a zippered clutch, later called a basic bag, 9455 from the late 70s or early 80s.
#3 is a pocket purse 9755 from the early 90s.

ETA: argh! skunked by Hyacinth's nimble fingers!

Great Minds Think Alike :D

And THAT'S why measurements and a good set of the right photos are so important when trying to ID or authenticate a classic or vintage Coach bag, Possums !!! :cool:

Hi all, What is the name of this pre-creed bag? And was it designed by Bonnie Cashin, a claim one sometimes sees on ebay? What is the vintage? I am excited to be rehabbing this bag, which I found on Craigslist.

It's a Courier Pouch, probably the large #8920. We need measurements to be sure of the style number. If it is pre-creed, then it was probably made in the early 70s. Does it have a metal tag or is the logo imprinted into the leather? I've never seen any evidence that Bonnie Cashin designed this particular style, but it was made either during her time at Coach or shortly after she left.

ETA: is anything stamped on the buckles?

Thanks. It has a metal tag. There is nothing stamped on the buckles. It has a pocket on the inside with no zipper and measures 10 inches by 10 inches, approximately.
