This TWA poster tells Boston's story from a windowsill: a gilded rooster weathervane and a ship in a bottle sit in front of tall harbor windows, with a TWA airliner crossing the sky outside and "BOSTON" set in bold white letters at the base. Both objects are New England classics — copper and gilt weathervanes crowned the region's barns and meeting houses, and ship models recall the city's sailing heritage. The artist of this one is not recorded, but it belongs to the same era of TWA destination posters that sold air travel with a single, well-chosen still life.
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.
