Rather than an airline's name, this blue roundel salutes the people up front: a Douglas DC-8 seen nose-on, gear down, beneath an arc of white stars, with DC-8 Flight Crew lettered below. The DC-8 was Douglas's first jetliner. It made its first flight on 30 May 1958, and on 18 September 1959 Delta and United both put it into passenger service on the same day. Crews who flew the type were proud of it, and stickers like this one turned up on many a flight bag.
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.
