I don’t know where to ask this so I thought I would try here. I’m curious but couldn’t find any info as I searched the threads. I just got an NYC station bag, with the creed stamp on the inner pocket (like my 90s station bags), not the outside one and also includes a serial number underneath. Would this still have been called the Large Shoulder Pouch or did it switch over to being called the Station bag at this point?

Also, was the burgundy color for NYC creed era more brown than red (like what @Catbird9 calls Mahogundy)? The bag I have has a reddish undertone but mostly looks brown...

From what I've been able to piece together from 2 or 3 catalogs, the 5130 Shoulder Pouch Large was apparently introduced around 1983 and discontinued in 1985. The style number came back, listed as "New" in Fall 1987 as the Station Bag when the inside pocket was also introduced (although a few early Station Bags might not have had one). Early versions from 1987 would have had NYC creeds, the Made in the United States creeds probably began some time in early 1988. So it seems like yours might be a Station Bag since it has an inside pocket.

Thanks so much for your help and appreciate your time in figuring it out!
 
hi everyone! I’ve been doing pretty well on my own with identifying legacy bags, but this one has me stumped. It’s not in my vintage Coach catalog, or any catalog images I find online either. I’ve seen a few for sale, but they all seem to be pre-1994. Measurements are 14” x 11” x 3”. I own this bag, so let me know if you need more photos or info!

I don't have a catalog photo but I have it in my files as 5260 executive briefcase from around 1990.

Do you happen to have a style number or catalog ad for the Wall Street Briefcase pictured in this Summer 1990 catalog? It looks like the Executive Briefcase but without a shoulder strap.

I was so excited to find this bag on Marketplace for $50.
I think that was a good deal. I am planning on using it as my everyday bag! I am disappointed that it smells like cigarette smoke though (the owner didn't disclose)
Anyway, what is the name and approx year of this bag? The measurements are 13" wide and 11" tall
Thanks in advance,
Christine

It was made in the early 70s. It is similar to a skinny tote #9546, but has different handles.
