A steam locomotive and an airliner race side by side on a bright yellow ground under the slogan "For Speed and Comfort" in this vintage-style poster art for South African Railways & Airways. This is a modern restoration-style design, and its original artist and date are not recorded. The pairing was literal: South African Airways was established in 1934, when the government's railway administration, South African Railways and Harbours, took over Union Airways, and for decades the airline was run as part of the railway organization, so trains and planes were promoted together.
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.
