I am in search of some Coach history lesson. I admit to be confused by the Legacy Signature line. Were they part of the very first signature fabric bags, and later on Coach brought them back with the 65th anniversary (striped liners) bags? I have seen those all over, but also some that look almost the same, but with normal liners and even some had like a lace in and out effect going through the edges, these bags had the signature fabric in blue, and I have seen them described as denim, they seem to be older.
No hurry.. just curious. Thanks!

Coach has re-used some style or line names over and over and over again, and most of the time the different lines have absolutely NO connection to each other, "Madison" is a good example. "Legacy" has been used in lines from 2002, 1994, 2003, 1999, 1997, and the 65th Anniversary Legacy Leather styles from 2005 as well as anothe half-dozen or so lines AFTER that date. In most cases there's no connection and details in one line usually don't show up in the other ones.

With Coach, NAMES MEAN NOTHING. Style numbers are what's important. Don't ever try to compare two bags just because Coach's lack of imagination stuck them with similar or even the same names.

No problem.
You can ask the Coach authenticators for their opinions at the link, below. Please make sure to follow the instructions in the first post.

Here's another eBay listing for the bag. NMA

Also, the Ava tote is a bag sold at the Coach Outlet stores. So, if you are near an outlet you might be able to find it there. I think it's a nice tote. I own it in the python print.
Good luck!

I have this bag in British Tan, and haven't been able to find any info, other than having it authenticated. No hand strap, and no where to attach one, right?

Someone posted a similar one recently with a creed photo and serial indicating it was made in the late 1980s or early 1990s. I looked through every catalog I have from that time period and couldn't find it.

Just a reminder - it usually helps to post more than one picture so we can see the actual details of the item, but I doubt if it would help in this case unless it has a creed and serial number from 1994 or newer.

There seem to have been two versions of the Turnlock Clutch with the wrist strap.

# 9832 - catalog pic below, 1997? measures 10.5" x 7" x 2.5"

#9971 - two current eBay listings showing creeds dating it to 1995-1996. Measurements given as 10" x 6"

ETA: houseof999's creed on the strapless version (shown in the linked Mercari listing) is pre-1994.

@Catbird9 thank you! Those must be the newer improved version of the clutch. I have a pre 1994 with 7 digit serial number. View attachment 3684948

Thanks! I have pics of the newer 2 ones made after 1994 but nothing on the earlier one with no strap and the all-number serial. :sad:

It has to be from between 1990 and really early 1994. Maybe if I have some time later I'll look though all my stuff again to be sure I didn't miss it.

Hello! Looking for some information on the Bleeker Street limited edition Peyton Satchels. Does anyone have catalog information on what the colors it was available in? Looking for the boutique version, not the outlet. The Style number is 12791. Thanks in advance!
Click to expand...

The leather Peyton 12791 came in green, gunmetal, saddle, fuchsia, white, and atlantic. There was also Peyton in a light green pearlized leather (#13546), plus there were other leather finishes like patent, suede, and embossed croc.

The outlet version was virtually identical to the FP, only the hangtag was different (plus the F in front of the style number on the creed). The MFF Peyton came in fuchsia leather, and black, gray, and white patent leather. There's a lot of discussion in this thread if you're interested in reading more: https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/mff-peytons.553673/
