Anyone else seen this rarity?

I bought this Bonnie Cashin bag nearly 20 years ago, after dusting it off I started researching, and can't find an image of it anywhere. As far as I can tell it's from 1977. 10" h x 11.5" w (strap drop 12"). I realize it's not Coach, but hopefully it's allowed.

Confirmation I have this ID'd correctly?

Hello
I've been an admirer of Bonnie Cashin for years, though am far from a bag scholar. I've researched a bag I own and would welcome any corrections or general humiliation anyone has. As far as I can tell it's a Cashin Carry Sling Bag with slit pocket from 1966-1967. The lining of the kiss-lock pocket and the bag is khaki (tan). The small pink woven label says COACH LEATHERWARE A BONNIE CASHIN DESIGN. Inner bag has a zip pocket with a small linked chain. Most of the versions I've found online have a tall rectangular shape, but this one is square. 10-3/4" wide x 10" high, from top of strap tp bottom of bag is 14-3/4". Nice quality pebble leather in watermelon red. Are my assumptions correct or a hilarious failure? Thanks in advance.
