Two Parisian figures, a waiter and a uniformed doorman, raise glasses of champagne in a toast on this Paris poster, designed for Pan Am by American illustrator Aaron Fine around 1960. Set against a cool blue ground with the city's skyline behind, the design shows the bold color, clean lines and gentle wit that mark Fine's mid-century work. It celebrated a new era of travel: Pan American had inaugurated transatlantic jet service with the Boeing 707 in 1958, putting Paris within a single day's reach of New York.
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.
