EBB70436-263C-4EA8-A95E-F7E2A9D03763.jpeg Sharing a story about a lovely vintage Coach Baxter Bag I just got and how I got it. About a year ago I “met” a woman when I bought a bag from her on Tradesy. We have texted regularly since regarding all things handbags and other things, too. She recently purchased a “new” Coach Baxter Bag on eBay. She paid $200 for the bag as it seriously is new - has the tag and care card. It is like someone bought it and never used it. And, it is a gorgeous dark navy blue. When my friend received the bag, however, the style of the bag did not work out for her. Knowing I love the bag, she texted me saying she was sending it to me. That I owed her nothing. That our friendship was enough. I received the bag yesterday and absolutely love ❤️ it! When I texted her I loved the bag and really did not know how to thank her she responded that my happiness was the “thank you.” Here’s my lovely new Coach Baxter Bag. I got a new wallet in dark navy blue and it also has the dark antique brass hardware that matches the bag’s brass hardware. I am truly humbled by this kind act of generosity by my friend and this is definitely one of those “pay it forward” things.

Does anybody have both the domed bowler and the baxter? May I see a picture of them side by side? Trying to decide which one to get first. Both of them are priced way up and may take a while to get both. Thank you.

I just started obsessing about 5 months ago. Am I missing something? I haven’t really looked in particular for the stewardess bag. What is special about it? Is it one of those styles like the baxter and bancroft that sells for quite a bit?

What is special is that it is stewardess bag that was designed for the airlines rather than for retail. It has some differences from the regular stewardess bag, and it has the airline emblem on it. There aren't very many of them available.
