A trimotor airliner flies beneath a red "Via Air" arrow on a yellow disc, above bold S.A.T. Inc. lettering and a winged star badge, ringed by "Southern Air Transport Division, American Airways Inc." Southern Air Transport was formed in Dallas on 11 February 1929 by A. P. Barrett, who consolidated Texas Air Transport and other small companies. Later that year it came under the Aviation Corporation, which organized American Airlines, and C. R. Smith ran it as American's most profitable division before becoming the airline's president in 1934.
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.
