HEAVY shouts across this mint-green and white handling label, framed by HANDLE WITH CARE above and JAPAN AIR LINES below, while a black panel shows a stick-figure handler bending to lift a suitcase. The small print code TS-40176 marks it as a working airport form rather than a souvenir. Japan Air Lines was formed on 1 August 1951; its crane emblem, designed in 1958, went on to become one of the most recognised marks in aviation.
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.
