This is the illustrated cover of Lufthansa's 1956 Summer Timetable, International Issue: a colourful jumble of European landmarks, spires, towers and gabled houses, framed in deep blue under the Lufthansa name. It comes from the airline's second summer back in the air. Lufthansa won approval to start scheduled flights on 1 April 1955, soon flew to London, Paris and Madrid, began Super Constellation service to New York in June 1955 and added South Atlantic routes from August 1956.

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.
