Independence Air was a short-lived low-fare airline based at Washington Dulles, which began flying under that name in 2004 and shut down in early 2006. This 2004 poster for Boston shows a sleek blue glass tower soaring above an equestrian statue, setting the city's modern skyline against its long history in a clean, contemporary style. The artist is not recorded on our copy. Because the airline existed for less than two years, its promotional material is uncommon, making this a neat piece of recent airline history for collectors of the low-fare boom of the 2000s.
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.
