A smiling young girl holding a bouquet of roses stands framed in an arch against a blue sky on this Balkan sticker, with "Welcome" written across the bottom above the airline's name and green-and-red stripes. Balkan Bulgarian Airlines was Bulgaria's national carrier, tracing its start to a 1947 Ju 52 flight from Sofia to Burgas and taking the Balkan name in 1968. Based in Sofia, it flew until it was liquidated in 2002. Airlines handed stickers like this one to passengers to keep or put on their bags.

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.

Note: Bags not intended for use by children 12 and under.
