This is a working handling label rather than a souvenir: a cracked white goblet on a bright red field, with FRAGILE above, FRAGIL below and Delta Air Lines across the foot. The two spellings let baggage handlers on both sides of a border read the warning at a glance. Delta, named for the Mississippi Delta in 1928 and headquartered in Atlanta since 1941, grew into an international carrier, and in 1991 bought most of Pan Am's European routes.
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.
