Now a Dooney & Bourke question...

[sally47]

Hi,
This is another thrift shop buy... I paid $1.00 for it. Any chance it's authentic? I couldn't get a great pic of the tag but it is white with blue print... no red. It says Dooney & Bourke Inc, Made in USA and on the back it is numbered 23699. I couldn't leave it there for $1.00!
Thanks
Sally

what a FIND, my mother has that bag and loves it to DEATH. thats one of my mothers favorite purses! that is DEFINATELY an oldschool dooney. you might want to do more research and get a few more opinions before ya believe me, but uh, i'da bought it, and i'da thunk it's real!

GREAT FIND!

PS- i don't think anyone would try to make a fake purse of that style!

Thanks again! And try the thrift shops associated with churches... they usually have some nice treasures! I have 4 pairs of very nice thrift shop Ferragamo's... no Ferragamo purse yet though! Happy hunting!
