Your basic could be saddle. Depends on when it was made. Saddle is more yellow than BT. Remember that BT varied from year to year, just as mahogany did. Tabac is a medium brown without the red tones of BT.
Thank you ...cant remember when my basic was made so will look tonight when I get home.
Please could I get a comp for 9730 shoulder sac and a what fits??? Any similar options from the lightweights you would recommend?
omg I cannot believe you are asking. I pulled mine out yesterday for the first time in ages and packed it to the gills for an excursion. I am going out for an errand. I can do it in a couple of hours if no one does it first
Also included is my phone, which I am using for the pics now, a packet of tissues and a three pack of disposable masks, which I put back in my car. Hope that helps. Let me know if you want something more specific.
I’m enjoying taking some photos, getting a feel for the light. Here is my new-to-me extra-large Shopping Bag style tote, Buckle Bag tote and Sling Bag
When I can, I will pull out my bags and compare.
This listing caught my eye as possibly an example of tabac. Other opinions are welcome.

I have been thinking about whateve’s comment about the spectator piping being tabac. And a big ty
for that. Then today I pulled out my shoulder purses. I believe the top left may be putty and the bottom left tabac. Against my BT letter carrier. All NYC with numbers. I have a Plaza I thought may be tabac, but when put it in this mix, def BT. And disregard any post where I thought my City might be tabac. It’s uber BT.
@Coachaddict4020 I just found this old post. My Bella court arrived a week ago and needs dunking and reshaping. I actually like my Watsons and thought they were the same size as the Bella. Your comps are very helpful! Thanks!Comp between the Bella 9957 & Watson 9981! Now that my Bella is rehabbed, I can see it’s a little bigger than the Watson but they’re both pretty similar. Both have a curved bottom, same depth, back slip pocket & inner zipper pocket

Please don’t mind the wrinkly table cloth I’m trying to use as a backdrop.
Note that the court is heavier than the Devon.
Can anyone provide a side by side of a Shelton vs. Shelburne? I had a Shelburne but sold it due to it being cumbersome to access items within the bag, I found the front flap (too long) with the slight "V" overall shape of the bag hindering. Is the Shelton the same?
