A pun on "got to be," this sticker pairs the blue-and-white Saltire of Scotland with two red jets and the bold slogan "Scot to be Prestwick." It promotes Prestwick Airport on the Ayrshire coast, an airfield established in the 1920s by David McIntyre and the Duke of Hamilton. In the years after the Second World War, Prestwick was Scotland's transatlantic gateway, and it later became home to Scottish Airlines. Stickers like this were a cheerful piece of airport promotion for travellers.
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.
