Bold black and orange concentric circles fill most of this Pan Am poster for Japan, with a tiny traditional dancer placed within them, giving the design the feel of a rising sun or a ripple spreading across still water. The stark, graphic approach reflects the modern direction airline posters took in the jet age, when Pan Am's routes across the Pacific linked the United States with Tokyo. Few posters of the period say so much with so little. The artist and exact date are not recorded.
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.
