I would like to know what these date codes mean. Does anyone have knowledge of their meaning?
i'm not the expert to ask..i always Google it and you will find many sites: Louis Vuitton Authentication Guide & Date Codes
Here's one of the link:

ThanksThanks!I clean the vachetta parts first by wiping it with non-alcohol, unscented baby wipes to remove the dirt and gunk especially under the handles. Then I use Apple Leather Conditioner afterwards.
No worries
Thanks Summer! [emoji4]
)I have Miss Noe petit and the Sac shopping tote, both are from 1998. So not yet 20yr old--I wonder how many years old is considered vintage?
The canvas on both is in great condition. I love the patina on Noe, but I need to replace the straps on my Miss Sac because her leather has dried out and one strap started to tear, no doubt from my tendency to overload my bags [emoji51]!
I also have the small Chantilly from the mid-1980s but haven't taken a pic of her.

The noe looks good
Just recently i purchased a LV Montsouris Backpack (late 2000) if not mistaken. I am grateful that the ladies at tpf had helped me to authenticate the bag. It was a very gorgeous piece and in good condition. Its my first LV bag and im very excited. I havent bring her out yet due to rainy season though
Will share some pics later.

Here's my 1992 Alma. I purchased it from a Japanese consignment shop last month. It's my first LV handbag, I've only had SLG's until now. I was so happy, it's in great condition. Just needs a bit of a clean and condition on the vachetta and that's it 
So, speaking of vintage. My local consignment shop recently got in a gorgeous Petit Noe that I learned today is from 1988!! So naturally . . . she just came home with me. Please meet this mature 28 year old gal! Can't believe the condition.
