A bold lightning bolt streaks across this vintage-style design for Imperial Airways, a graphic shorthand for speed above the invitation to "Fly from London to Paris, Brussels, Cologne." These short European hops were the bread and butter of Imperial's business, connecting the British capital with the great cities just across the Channel in a fraction of the time taken by boat train. The strong, simple geometry recalls the Art Deco look of interwar publicity. Imperial Airways operated until it became part of BOAC at the start of the 1940s. This is a modern restoration-style artwork rather than a dated original.
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.
