An ornate baroque church glows in orange-red above a crowd of people in this BOAC poster, "Fly to South America by BOAC." The artist is not recorded. BOAC came to South America through its 1949 merger with British South American Airways, which had flown from London to the east and west coasts of the continent, and the colonial churches of cities such as Lima and Rio were natural emblems for the route. The poster sells the continent through its architecture and street life rather than its aircraft.
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.
Note: Bags not intended for use by children 12 and under.
