Big cream italic letters declare THIS IS BAGGAGE on a deep navy label, with JAPAN AIR LINES across the top and the red JAL crane roundel in the corner. A form code in the bottom corner, TS40117 (REV01.73), suggests a printing revision of January 1973. Japan Air Lines was formed in August 1951 and opened its first international service, the Pacific Courier to the US West Coast, in February 1954; its crane emblem dates from 1958.
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.
