"South America - Travel by Imperial Airways." This poster turns to the far side of the Atlantic, built around the image of a colonial church, its pale facade and bell towers standing for the old Spanish and Portuguese cities of the continent. The architecture does the work of setting the scene, promising history, color and warmth to the British traveler. It is a less familiar destination in the Imperial Airways poster series, which more often pictured Europe, Africa, the Middle East and India, and it shows how widely the airline cast its net in its advertising.
The bag is made from 10-ounce canvas of 80% recycled cotton and 20% cotton. The recycled fibers are collected from garment-cutting waste and then intertwined with cotton for added strength and durability. Self-fabric handles. Dimensions: 15.75" h x 15.25" w; approx. 240 cubic inches.
