A winged propeller emblem sits at the heart of this red and cream roundel, circled by the words U.S. Airmail Express and Passenger Service. It sums up the early business of Northwest Airlines Inc.: the company began in 1926 as Northwest Airways carrying mail for the Post Office, added passengers in 1927 and adopted the Northwest Airlines name in 1934. Its home was the Twin Cities, where it remained headquartered throughout its history.
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.
