Northwest Orient Airlines flew north to Alaska as well as west across the Pacific, and this poster sums up the territory in two powerful images. A carved totem pole rises in the foreground, a monument of the Indigenous peoples of the Alaskan coast, while snow-capped mountains fill the distance in cool shades of blue. The contrast between the bold carved figures and the vast wilderness behind them gives the design both cultural depth and a sense of scale. It is a classic piece of Northwest Orient advertising that sold Alaska as the great northern frontier.
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.
