Made in U.S.A.” tag inside, with the number A1759857 on the other side of the tag. It is all-weather leather, black and tan, with a “Dooney & Bourke, Inc. It was a gift in the 1980s, and it looks very similar to the vintage Zipper Clutch you have on your site. Hello! I just found your wonderful website and blog, and am hoping you can help me identify my Dooney & Bourke bag. You can always buy authentic Dooney & Bourke bags on our website. So value is a combination of vintage and condition. Your first bag, the white one looks nice !! The interior is clean and the British Tan is bright !!īut the taupe bag, with its soiled interior and darkened British Tan would have a greatly reduced value. So yes an early pristine bag would be worth more than a later pristine bag and both would be worth more than the new AWL releases. That is if they were all in the same condition. If there were three authentic Dooney & Bourke bags in a row and they were all in the same condition…….I’d say from the most valuable to the least valuable would be:Įarly pre-tag DB Fob bag (such as yours) (made in USA)Ĭontemporary reissue bag from the AWL collection (NOT made in USA) Would these be of more or less value than other years? Thank you in advance. I got the one for my 16th birthday and the other I acquired later. Question-Would 1981-1982 purses be of more or less valuable than the years following? I do believe both of these are 1981-82. Thank you ever so much for the wealth of knowledge you are willing to share w/ us AWL D&B ladies out here! I so appreciate you. Hello Ms Paula! Hope you are Healthy&Happy today. Here is one of my personal bags – a solid black large Horseshoe bag – that goes to town with me every time. Once you have owned one and see the quality of materials and workmanship, it is hard to choose anything else.
There is nothing like a vintage All Weather Leather Dooney & Bourke handbag. Putting a value on a bag we can’t see, hold, and sniff is just impossible. Questions related to “what’s my bag worth”. Leather bags that are not All Weather Leather.Ĥ.
