Very nice collection! I recently found a vintage coach bag at a yard sale for 25 cents! I thought for sure it was a willis, but after some research I figured out it's actually a station bag. You have a lovely collection!

ETA: Nothing beats the vintage Coach leather! I wish the new bags were this nice.

Station bags are nice and just a smidge smaller-I really like mine!

What an amazing collection!

Thanks! What's really amazing is how some of these old bags have held up! Puts an old bag like me to shame! ;)

Very nice collection!

Thanks!

Nice collection, congrats

Thank You! I really need to stop now...lol!

Wow! Beautiful! I LOVE classic Coach.

Me too! You can probably tell. :p

Congrats!!!

Thanks!

I would love to see a photo of your green bag after it dries! Awesome collection!

Here you go, it's hard to capture this color, Hyacinth said it was "Loden". I think it's a little faded, but not quite as washed out as it looks here:

I should post a "before" also. She was in pretty good shape, but just FLAT! This also captures the color a little better:

Lovely! Such classic and timely pieces, congrats! Beautiful collection:tup:


Love your collection :ps:

Thanks!

You can never have "too many" Willis family members around! Love 'em! :love:

No, really, I have to stop, if only to save up for my Poppy Willis! Thank You Hyacinth with all your authentication assistance. :D
 
The Post Pouch is somewhere between a Poppy Willis and new Mini Willis, she is about 8X8, maybe a little smaller.

So-- gonna get off topic and post the Aigner Post-Pouch look alike . It just showed up, and it seems to be almost the exact same measurements? I'm getting about 8x8x3D. Such cuteness, but so little in size!! The texture of this bag is kinda like the Dooney All Weather Leather. I love the detailing on the strap/dowels with the whiskey colored leather and gold accents. Until I can afford a Post Pouch, this will have to do!! It's made just as well as the Coach dowel bags I have. I have a shot sitting next to the Poppy Willis for size comparison.
