An oval sticker for TAE National Greek Airlines, with a map of Europe and the Mediterranean showing red route lines fanning out from Athens. The Greek name, Ethnikai Aeroporikai Grammai, arches over the top in blue, and the English name runs around the bottom. Passengers received labels like this to paste on their bags. The Greek government formed TAE in 1951 as the national airline. Aristotle Onassis agreed to buy it in 1956, and in April 1957 it was renamed Olympic Airways, making this sticker a relic of a short-lived carrier.
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.
