An airliner crosses the towering Andes while a horse stands in the foreground of this "Fly to Chile via Panagra" poster, a design from the airline's early decades. The artist is not recorded. Panagra, Pan American-Grace Airways, was formed in 1928 as a partnership between Pan American Airways and the W. R. Grace Company. Grace's steamship lines gave it a foothold along the west coast of South America, and the joint airline used that reach to fly from the Canal Zone down to Peru and Chile, crossing the Andes to Argentina, at a time when the same trip by sea took weeks.
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.
