(ETA: It has come to my attention that the ‘Chicago Tribune‘ has mentioned Bagaholic 101 in their article ‘Is that handbag real, or fake? Here’s how to prove your designer bag is the real thing‘. Thank you very much, Ms. Ellen Warren for the feature and recognizing this Ultimate Gucci Guide!)

We had our first foray into vintage Gucci bags, especially the Gucci Accessory Collection in this post. Likewise, we also discussed how to determine authenticity in vintage Gucci bags through serial numbers. You have also seen Gucci knight crest zipper pulls in the Gucci zipper section.
Vintage Gucci bags are as ever as popular as the contemporary bags. Most people who begin with their Gucci journey inherit an item or two from yesteryears. These bags also are consistently listed on Ebay or other online selling platforms.
But a fair warning, some vintage bags are also fake Gucci vintage bags. It is important to study the hallmarks of an authentic vintage Gucci bag.
(Hint: Some of the vintage Gucci bags you are looking for might appear in this post discussing Gucci print ads and campaigns through the years!)

In this section, I will be posting a couple of vintage Gucci bags, some of which are from the vintage Gucci Accessory Collection. The Gucci Accessory Collection is an interesting piece of Gucci history that was made from 1979 until the late 1990s. It has been widely available in airports and department stores.

It will be interesting to look at the details on the hardware, leather and monogram print.

Using less hardware and leather out of pigskin, the usual combination are: 1) navy GG monogram print + navy leather trim + navy/red web stripe details, and 2) beige/ebony GG monogram print + brown leather trim + red/green web strip details.

Aside from the Gucci leather tag and serial number, some vintage GAC bags also have a paper tag beneath. But through use and old age, it is not uncommon to see these tags get removed. Here is an example of an authentic paper tag.

Some authentic vintage Gucci bags also had a “G.GUCCI” engraving on their hardware, probably from the 1980s.

As mentioned here, vintage Gucci linings tend to break down, so be attentive with the details of Gucci bags for sale on Ebay.
The photos below are some examples and details of authentic vintage Gucci bags that are not from the Gucci Accessory Collection:

When buying vintage Gucci purses on Ebay, always ask for question on wear and tear. Gucci bags stand the test of time, but they are not infallible. It is particularly not desirable to have a flaking lining and ruin your stuff.

‘ULTIMATE GUCCI GUIDE’ SECTIONS:
Hi there wondered if you could help? I’m watching a bag that is Vintage Gucci, it’s has a gold metal tag on the back which has the knight to the left with GUCCI and R circled above, then to the right it has Gucci written in italics (like the Gucci style) with MADE IN ITALY underneath
Thanks
Hi! Is this the item ? Then, this is an authentic vintage Gucci bag!
Hi! I have a beautiful Gucci bag that fits all of these requirements, perfect patten on the outside, all of the hardware has the imprinted logo, the inside of the bag is slightly shedding its lining, and it has a serial number. The only thing that concerns me is that the paper tag on my vintage Gucci accessory collection bag. In your photo Gucci is on top and the crest is dead center. On mine, Gucci is dead center and the crest is on top. Otherwise everything else is the same. The back of the paper tag is authentic and the leather tag is beautiful. Does this small difference on the paper tag mean it is not authentic?
Hi! I have seen this type of Gucci tag that you described, but I can’t seem to find one from my own photo collection. If you could post a photo, this would be helpful but I see nothing to worry about. Cheers!
Hi there,
This is an excellent guide to identifying Vintage Gucci! I wondered if you knew anything about the label “Gucci Parfum” that appears in some vintage Gucci clutches from the 1980s. Do you know anything about this label? It confused me that some small Gucci Bags have this label. I have only seen this label on Gucci clutches. Any info you have would be greatly appreciated!
Hi! This is most likely given as free purses for Gucci perfumes. It also has the pigskin leather used on it. Kindly post a photo if you can. Cheers!
I hope you are still keeping up with comments on here, because I really appreciate your tutorials and have an important question. Did Gucci ever made a blondie bag WITHOUT the big medallion on the front. I have on and everything looks so perfect except I couldn’t find single other one online that was the blondie style and did NOT have the medallion either attached or cut out on the top flap. Please help!
Hi! Can you post a photo of the bag in question?
Hi there can you help me to authentic a Gucci ? Thanks
Hi! Sure, you can post a link to the photos of your Gucci bag in the comments. Happy New Year from our side in the Pacific!
I can send you the attachments but don’t have a website
can i send you an email ? thanks
Hi! To educate more people, I suggest making photos publicly available. Try uploading on Tinypic, then paste the URL/link to the photo in the comment. Cheers!
Greetings!
Thanks so much for all your helpful tips for authenticating vintage Gucci bags. I’m new to the vintage bag scene but found what I believe to be a real vintage gucci bag from the 80’s for a steal of a deal. Would love your help in confirming if this bag is indeed authentic. I’ve included links to pics below. The serial number on the back of the tag is in a different format from the others that I’ve seen, but overall I believe the bag has many markings that confirm it’s authenticity.

Hi! Yes, this is an authentic Gucci bag. I have posted on it here: https://bagaholic101.com/ultimate-guide-tell-gucci-bag-real-fake-gucci-bag-serial-number-check-2/
I recently received a Gucci accessory collection bag, it is in used condition, but I have no idea on the name of this bag, is it possible to send a picture to anywhere. For confirmation?
Hi! Gucci Accessory Collection bags usually do not have a name. Cheers.
Hi! I bought a vintage Gucci bag from an estate sale. Can you tell me is its authentic? I read all your articles….and I think its authentic,, however not totally sure. I was told that it was from the late 70s, possibly early 80s. It has the gold cursive logo. I haven’t seen that logo in your articles.
Hi! The Gucci cursive logo can be seen in one of the case studies (i.e. Gucci Abbey) I had posted. But yes, I have seen vintage bags with this logo font.
If you can post a photo, I could help you out. Cheers!
I purchased this purse.. Claims to be authentic. Is it? It is from the Accesory collection. Please help me!!! http://a65.tinypic.com/2u97q08.jpg

Hi!
You’re help is priceless. I’m looking at 2 bags and I’m confused by their low price and great condition. I know that may sound silly, but I would rather know exactly what I’m getting.

Hi! This is an authentic vintage Gucci Accessory Collection bag. Cheers!
I bought a Gucci bag and I’m having a hard time tracking down solid info on it. Can you tell me if you know anything about it? It’s gucci monogram with knights zipper full and gold g closure.
Hi! We need a photo of the bag to be sure. Several Gucci bags have the knight zipper pull in monogram. Cheers!
Hi! I love your posts. It is very informative. I am looking into this vintage bag but quite hesitant as it doesn’t match every details that you have pointed out (the label seems to be off). I would like to seek your opinion and expert eye on this 🙂

Hi! This looks like an authentic Gucci Accessory Collection bag to me. Cheers!
I don’t want to post a link right away, but I see a vintage Gucci online… Everything seems to check out and even has this red drawstring pouch included… But the buckles lack GG symbol.
Hi! Photos would help to authenticate a Gucci bag. Cheers!

HI I hope you can help I wanted to find out if this is a authentic bag ?

Hi,
Excellent post! Can you help me determine if this bag is authentic? I can’t tell from the limited pictures available, but perhaps your eye is better! 🙂

What do you think?
Hi! This is an authentic vintage Gucci Accessory Collection bag. Cheers!
The seller chose not to send additional photos of the purse so I will not be buying from them! I found another one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/222887628507?ul_noapp=true
How does it look to you?
Hi! Needs a photo of the serial number and the Gucci tag to be sure. Cheers!
Hi,
(this is a correction post as my first post had a dud link for pictures)
What a wealth of knowledge you hold! Thank you for sharing! I purchased 2 vintage gucci bags online and i studied the pics against your notes and i think they are real. It would be of great reassurance if I could trouble you to look at the photos and authenticate it too. Thank you

Hi! This is vintage Gucci bag with serial number 001.090.0487 is authentic, not to mention, very gorgeous! Congrats!
Hi- really appreciate the detail you put into this post. I have a vintage Gucci bag I got from my mom and it seems some of the marks of authenticity are there and others not. Could you weigh in?
Hit send to fast on my last post. Hoping you can help me authenticate (or not) I’m on the fence. Pictures ( two different locations, same pictures): https://photos.app.goo.gl/5tu177BbnfKP8LWQ7

Hi Emily! In my opinion, this vintage Gucci monogram bag with serial number 001.0791 is authentic. You may also refer to this post discussing Gucci zippers (https://bagaholic101.com/ultimate-guide-tell-gucci-bag-real-fake-gucci-bag-zipper/) as it has the same gold Gucci knight zipper pull. Cheers!
Thank you!! Really appreciate your help!
You are very much welcome, Emily!
hi, can you please help me authenticate vintage gucci bag. can i email you all detail picture of the bag? i dont know how to upload here. thanks
Hi Meyjune, please upload photos of your Gucci bag on Photobucket or Tinypic and paste the url/link here. Cheers!
Can’t decide if this bag from the 80’s (from what I can find) is real or not, I’ve seen a couple like it, but most don’t show the inner plaque in pictures. Everything else looks legit on it compared to the others. Even has the same serial number as one other I found, but I don’t know. http://s1250.photobucket.com/user/Jenna_Boehme/library/?src=pb
This is apparently an authentic one:

Hi Jenna, somethings is off with the bag.
Dear Bagaholic 101. I was told this bag was GUCCI but it misses out on lining, capitals, Registration mark and serial number. So I assume that it is fake?

Hi David! Yes, this is an authentic Gucci bag.
Hello! I was wondering if you could help me determine the authenticity of a vintage Gucci bag. I recently purchased it online. The stitching, canvas, logos, and serial number all seem authentic to me, but since I am new at this, I’m afraid I might have over looked something! Thank you!! http://s1268.photobucket.com/user/sbpe229/library/Gucci%20Bag
Hi Sierra! This vintage Gucci Accessory Collection monogram bag with serial number “56.02.004” is authentic. This is reminiscent of the current Gucci Ophidia Camera bag by Alessandro Michele. Cheers!
Hello help me please https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F312216721902
Hi Yeet! This vintage brown Gucci monogram canvas tote with serial number “39.02.003.” is authentic.
Hi! I bought a Gucci Accessory collection bag at an antique store but there is no serial # on it. Does it mean it’s fake? Thank you and have a great day!
Hi Gino! Not all Gucci bags will have a serial number. Please post photos of the bag in question to authenticate. Cheers!
Hi!

My wife bought a gucci vintage access collection crossbody, we have a suspicion it might not be authetnic. The buckle on the strap has mongram. The mongram at the front is slghtly tilted. & the zipper labels is dark organgy instead of gold compared to the the other metal. The metal on the 2 sides the bag that holds down the straps has no monogram on it either. May we send pics to you? Do you have a seperate email address for pictures? I’d like to act fast so that credic card doesn’t process the payment. Is there going to Gucci flagship in NY? Can they give an opinion?
Hi Sanoj! Please upload photos on Imgur or Tinypic and paste the links here for me to check. Cheers!
Thanks so much for sharing all of your knowledge! I am now convinced my mega barging today is a major jackpot!! Bought 2 blue monogram vintage bags at an estate garage sale for $7.00, yes SEVEN bucks!!! I’m beyond excited!
Hi Nydia! That’s such great news! I always love to hear readers score a bargain because of this real Gucci bag authentication guide!
Thank you so much for your comments on my Gucci bag “001.090.0487”, I appreciate your help!
(Sorry for the multiple uploading of photos, I thought they were not posted to you, so I kept on trying…)
You’re welcome! Yes, I’ve been receiving a lot of spam comments, thus the need for comment moderation! 😉
Hello,
I have a vintage crossbody Gucci bag without any serial numbers inside, probably from 1970. The new Ophidia bag resembles this style very much.
It appears to be identical to the one you have featured in your page about Gucci authentication. Can you please help me confirm that this is 100% authentic. I uploaded the photos on Imgur.
Thank you very much, Julie
Hello,
Not sure if I provided all the information you may need. Sorry, here it is one more time.
I am looking for your help to authenticate the Vintage Gucci crossbody bag. I posted the photos on imgur, https://jtyles.imgur.com/all/. I have more photos if you need to see.
It does not have a serial number, stitching is not perfect.
Thank you very much,
Julie
Hi Julie! Yes, this is similar to current Gucci Ophidia camera bags, and those from the vintage Gucci Accessory Collection also have this. Nevertheless, this is an authentic vintage Gucci bag, likely from the 1970s.
Hi there, just recently purchased this bag on Poshmark. Tried to search for this vintage piece, but unable to locate online. Can you take a look. I’m not seeing logos on the D-ring and zipper is not YKK and the logo is not exactly matching up with anything I’ve seen. But then again here’s been so many variations!
Here’s the link and I can provide more photos if needed.

Hi JG! This is an authentic vintage Gucci bag. Cheers!
Hi again! I hope you are doing well !
Today I’ve got a Gucci belt which was given to me many years ago by my late aunt (it was hers). I never used it and now I want to know if it is authentic, in fact, there isn’t any serial Nr. on it and this looks to me a little weird… On the other hand, I know she used to shop high end brands and she never bought any fakes. Apart from the first 17 styling photos which I had previously made for my files, I made some more (photos 17-25), focused on the details that may be useful to you.
I appreciate your help!

Hi I was hoping you could help me authenticate this gucci it has no serial number, but it is deffinatly vintage, but I dont know anything more then that, i would really appreciate anything you could tell me about it. Thanks so much
Hi, I have an authentic Gucci bag purchased on Worth Ave in Palm Beach in the ’80’s. I need to sell it and have looked for one like it, but can’t find one. Can you tell me how to value it? Also, how will I prove that it’s not a fake?
Hi Cheryl! We usually do not comment on a Gucci bag’s value, as it is relative to the the individual selling it. For this free Gucci bag authentication, I will be needing clear photos of the Gucci bag, especially Gucci marking inside the bag. Please upload on Imgur or Tinypic, and put the links in your comment. Cheers!
Hi could you please authenticate this bag. There is no serial number but it might just be an older bag? There is wear & tear but the quality seems really good overall. (I posted asking for help once but I’m not sure if I didn’t post it right so I’m sorry if this ends up being a double post.)

Hi Lisa! This is a GORGEOUS vintage Gucci monogram bag! If you check this link here GUCCI HERITAGE, ICONS, AND BEYOND: EVOLUTION OF THE GUCCI TRADEMARK, this number usually appears next to the Gucci crest and GUCCI ITALY! This also has the diamante lining. I am jealous! Cheers!
P.S. Would you mind if I include this in that link? This will be helpful to others searching for information on vintage Gucci, too!
Yay! & yes, of course. You are more than welcome to include it in that link. Thank you for you help 🙂
Yay! Thanks, Lisa! Enjoy your bag in good health! *hugs*
Hello! Please could you help me with an authentication? It’s a vintage bag I have recently bought and unfortunately I have noticed some signals that it could be fake (as some imperfections in the inner lining).
Thank you so much for the amazing work and help you are doing on this platform!

Hi Tun! This Gucci boston bag with red and green strip and serial number “207297” is unfortunately fake.
Hello! I wanted to double check that this bag was authentic before purchasing it from a seller. To me, the symbol looks a tad wonky but a second opinion would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Hi Jess G! This is an authentic vintage Gucci bag. You may also check this page: https://bagaholic101.com/gucci-heritage-icons-and-beyond-evolution-of-the-gucci-trademark/
Hi! This page has been super helpful! I bought a huge lot of purses at a yard sale and was excited when I found a Gucci purse but after your page I’m pretty sure it’s fake. Thought I’d see if you wouldn’t mind confirming though before I scrap it. I could not find a serial number anywhere. Thanks so much!

Hi ! Can you please authenticate this vintage Gucci belt. It was given to me by my aunt in the early 80s…It was hers for awhile and did not fit her anymore. She traveled to Italy frequently and to my knowledge only bought authentic items. Thanks so much! [IMG]http://i64.tinypic.com/1z4idc2.jpg[/IMG]

Hi Vanessa! This vintage monogram Gucci Accessory Collection purse with removable strap and serial number “66.001.4461” is authentic. Cheers!
Hi. I was curious if this was authentic. Also if you think the staining is able to be cleaned. It looks like the center strap bled onto the bag. thank you so much
Hi Vanessa! Items marked with “GUCCI PARFUMS MADE IN ITALY 38” or even any other number are possibly given as gifts. They are not the same as the Gucci main line nor the vintage Gucci Accessory collection items.
Hi! I was hoping you could look at this bag to see if it’s authentic or not. Not sure if my other comment posted (sorry!) Everything looks like it might be but I don’t see a stamp on the D rings on the straps? Hope it is real! Got it for $5!
