Texas, summed up in one bold image: a giant pair of cowboy boots towers over a modern city skyline on a rich gold ground in this 1960 poster for Braniff International Airways. Braniff was a Texas airline through and through. In 1958 it opened new general offices at Exchange Park in Dallas, within sight of Love Field, and a maintenance and operations base on the east side of the field. Around the time this poster appeared, Braniff was entering the jet age with the Boeing 707-227, a variant no other airline ordered, and it added Boeing 720s in the early 1960s. The artist is not recorded.
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.
