Stylized red and blue map shapes carry the headline "Fly from England to India in 6 days" in this restored, vintage-style poster for Imperial Airways. A journey of days was a revolution when the sea voyage took weeks. Imperial Airways opened its London to Karachi service on March 30, 1929, and the first schedule took seven days: de Havilland DH.66 Hercules airliners flew London to Paris and Basle, passengers crossed to Genoa by train, Short Calcutta flying boats carried them on to Alexandria, and Hercules aircraft again flew the desert stages across the Middle East to Karachi.
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.
