A carved Celtic high cross towers over the Irish countryside in this early-1950s TWA poster, while a woman by a cottage greets a man on horseback and a Lockheed Constellation flies over the green fields beyond. The lettering runs deep green across the sky and red below. Dealers credit the design to Simon Greco (1917–2005), the Life magazine illustrator who drew several of TWA's propeller-era posters, from the years when Shannon was the airline's Irish gateway.

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.
