The Graf Zeppelin glides over South America in this early-1930s poster from the Hamburg-Amerika Linie, which sold tickets for the airship's transatlantic service. "Nach Südamerika in 3 Tagen" means "To South America in 3 days," a journey that took far longer by ocean liner. Dealer listings credit the design to the German graphic artist Ottomar Anton (1895–1976), with the route traced from Germany across the Atlantic to Pernambuco, Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires. Built by Luftschiffbau Zeppelin, the Graf Zeppelin made 590 flights between 1928 and 1937.
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.
