Air France "rayonne sur le monde" – shines over the world – in this 1946 poster by Edmond Maurus, printed by Goossens. On a deep blue ground scattered with stars, a radiant sun bearing the airline's winged seahorse emblem lights up the globe below, while an airliner heads toward the viewer. The poster dates from the year after the Second World War ended, when Air France was rebuilding its network and reconnecting France with its routes across the world.

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.
