Red wings and a red triangle carry the words Delta Air Lines across a silver disc, ringed by The Trans-Southern Route and the three cities that defined it: Fort Worth, Atlanta and Charleston. That line was Air Mail Route 24, which Delta won in 1934; mail flights began on 4 July with Stinson Model T aircraft and passenger service followed on 5 August. Airlines handed passengers stickers like this to paste on their luggage. Seven years later, in 1941, Delta moved its headquarters to Atlanta.
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.
