Thank you. I searched and found a lot of references to "camera bag" but I wasn't certain that it was actually called that.
I appreciate your help. (And thanks, DemRam! Come back!)
Either your photo is too big or it's in the wrong format. What size is the original? And what format?
We don't like "identifying" something just from a number because the number might not be right or the item might not be genuine. We really need to see photos.
I know you weren't talking to me when you mentioned that we don't like to ID an item without pictures but I know my item is authentic. I apologize for not including a pic or 2.
Thank you.

No, I was referring to the other poster's missing photos that may or may not be of a TA Mini Messenger
Thanks Hyacinth -- I understand that you can't authenticate it without full photos -- that makes sense. I tried photos as jpg s and as pdf s . The odd part is that pictures of the bag itself uploaded without a problem but whenever I tried to upload a picture of the creed, it failed. I took and retook the photos numerous times and none worked. They were the same size as the ones that worked that were of the bag only, not the creed.
I will try to get the administrator's attention to resolve the matter. Apparently its been happening to a lot of folks.
Thanks for your attention to my question though.
It seems to happen randomly. Usually for me, it works if I make the photos smaller. If you don't have a program that resizes photos, you can upload them to a photo site which will automatically resize them.
If several oversize pictures have already been uploaded, the forum software might refuse to upload any more large ones, so it's best to just resize them.
There's a great free program called Irfanview that I've used for years that can not only resize a photo with just a few clicks, but can do all sorts of other tricks I've never had time to check out. As always, be very careful using ANY download sites and don't just click on the first one on a list, especially in this case. Always watch and REFUSE any extra downloads a site might offer, especially any "free" toolbars.

The Majorgeeks site still seems relatively safe, but always be sure to carefully read every box, every page, and every choice you're offered.
I have an oddball item that I've never seen.
Most of the Olympic commemorative items were made for the 1996 olympic games however this wristlet has a random serial number so it would have been made prior to 1994.
On the creed, it says "special edition" under the Coach name but I can't read what's under those words. And the text of the creed refers to the 100th anniversary 1996 olympics. Would they have made a commemorative item prior to 1994?

I've seen a few Olympic items with similar creeds. Under the Coach name I think it says "Special Edition 36 USC 380." All those I've seen with all numeric creeds start with a three digit number starting with a "6." All Olympic style numbers also start with a "6" and are three digits so I think they could be style numbers.
I'm sorry I don't have many Olympic items catalogued but I think I've seen that style before.
ETA: I believe "36 USC 380" stands for "United States Code 36 Statute 380", which governs the use of Olympics-related terms and marks.

Whateve is absolutely right about those oddball Olympic serial numbers. The first 3 numbers were usually the actual style number of the item. Olympic items will have all-numeric numbers with 3-number "prefixes" that show the style number. The second set of numbers could be either 3 or 4 numbers and was probably the sequence number of that item.
Netlawyer made a very informative post back on April 20, 2013 in the ID This Coach thread about Olympic items and the details of genuine stamps, the number code is correct:

"If it has the torch logo, you should always see "TM(C)1992 ACOG" and if it has the Olympic rings it will always have "36 USC 380" - counterfeiters often got these confused or left them off not knowing what they meant..."
There are several posts on the subject of Olympic items there. There was a slightly different case discussed back in 2014 that might have been a camera case, it was just called a Tourist Pouch:

The first 3 numbers look like 656- which would make it the USOC Multi Function Case made probably in 1995 since it's in the Holiday 1995 catalog.

Thank you both!
You have much better eyes than I have! I could read the "36 US" but couldn't get the rest of it.
So 656 is the style number!
Thanks again.

My item has fleece lining too. I'm not sure what it was intended to hold -- maybe one of those long original Nokia phones?
