Two tall black arrows pointing to a bar, framed in a heavy black border, form the international symbol for "this way up," telling handlers how a package must stand. Along the bottom runs a stylised R emblem with speed lines and the name Royalair Ltd. Handling labels like this were plain working paper, slapped on parcels and freight rather than handed out as souvenirs, and their stark graphic style has an appeal of its own.
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.
