This vintage-style design for Imperial Airways carries the airline's proud slogan, "The Empire's Air Line," above the route England - Italy - Egypt - India, with a Union Jack and a globe at its heart. The words trace the long chain of stops by which Imperial linked Britain with India in the interwar years, a trip of several days with overnight halts along the way. Imperial Airways was Britain's chosen instrument for air links across the Empire until it became part of BOAC at the start of the 1940s. This is a modern restoration-style artwork rather than a dated original.
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.
