This lively label shows a twin-engine airliner streaking across a red sky above bold cream lettering that reads 'Sped by Braniff Air-Freight', with the airline name set on a deep navy band. Its wording points to shipments moving on Braniff's network rather than passenger bags. Braniff traced its beginnings to 1928, when brothers Tom and Paul Braniff started flying between Tulsa and Oklahoma City, and it grew into a major carrier across the central United States and Latin America before ceasing operations on May 12, 1982.
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.
