Thanks! I use Obenauf's oil, Leather CPR and blackrocks depending on the bag and the condition. The orange big mouth bag was in pretty great condition when I got it so I think I have only ever put CPR on it because I don't want to change the color. The brown one is really dry and stiff. Actually I could possibly make a second, more concerted effort to rehab it again. I might check it for shoe polish, also cover the spot on the kisslock where the leather is damaged. It's been a while since she had any attention.

Thank you! I use those also (+ LP), like you said, depending on the bag & its condition. And, I agree, color change concerns also come into play, especially with those beautiful oranges!

Yeah, the food colors were a thing for a while there.

Then there were the animals: Doe, Vicuna, ....

Then there was Whiskey....:drinks:

Mmmmm, food colors. Not strictly vintage but ... Aubergine :yes:

And don't forget Bordeaux and Merlot! wine.gif


Dijon, papaya, asparagus, apple, berry ... too many to count
Champagne, capucchino, dijon, cognac, and just plain old Wine ...

Hi all! I was wondering if anyone knows if the 9170 came in different sizes? I have this one I rehabbed that is 10 inches across. View attachment 4339445

But this one is only 8 inches across. View attachment 4339447

Thanks so much for any assistance you can give me. The second one is a bit older, it has the metal coach tag. Not sure if that makes a difference or is it a different bag? Thanks again.

:loveeyes: What a beauty! and pretty rare if I'm not mistaken. It's a smaller version of the 9170. I've never seen a catalog pic of it. There is a Small Shoulder Bag #9530 which is about the same size but has a turnlock:

I agree it is a smaller version. I call it small classic pouch. I've never seen a catalog picture of it either. Both of mine are pre-creed. I don't think they made it later when they were using creeds.
