Red lettering wraps around a cream disc while a pair of wings carries the NWA initials across a blue center. NWA was long the shorthand for Northwest Airlines, which started in 1926 as Northwest Airways, an airmail carrier based in the Twin Cities, and became Northwest Airlines in 1934. Airlines gave stickers like this to travelers to put on their bags, and the simple roundel made a bold advertisement wherever a suitcase went.
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.
