A gold medallion shows a DC-9 seen from above, encircled by the words CONTINENTAL AIRLINES and DC-9 GOLDEN JET. Golden Jet was the name of Continental's gold-tailed look of the era: the second Golden Jet scheme, worn from 1962 to 1967, appeared on Boeing 707s and 720s, 727s, Viscounts and DC-9-15RCs. From 1967 the airline promoted itself as "The Proud Bird with the Golden Tail". Airlines gave out stickers like this for passengers to put on their luggage.
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.
