Pink borders frame this Flying Tiger 'Priority Airfreight' label, made for shipments of exhibit material, with lines for the sender, date, air waybill number, piece count and destination. The Flying Tiger Line was founded in 1945 by Robert W. Prescott and ten former pilots of the American Volunteer Group, the wartime Flying Tigers it was named after, and it became the first scheduled cargo airline in the United States. Federal Express bought it in December 1988 and merged it in August 1989.
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.
