The AA eagle sits at the center of this red roundel, ringed by "A Service of American Airlines, Inc." and "American Overseas Airlines," with "The American Airlines System" in script. American Overseas Airlines grew out of American Export Airlines, which took its new name in November 1945 after American Airlines gained control of it. AOA flew across the Atlantic to London, Shannon, Amsterdam, Frankfurt and Scandinavia until it was merged into Pan Am on September 25, 1950, making this label a reminder of a short chapter.
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.
