Stan Galli (1912-2009) painted this Las Vegas poster for United Air Lines around 1960, when the Strip's resort hotels were selling desert sunshine by day and shows and casinos by night. A woman laughs from a sparkling swimming pool while the big hotels rise behind her against a hot red sky. Galli, a San Francisco native who spent his career in advertising art, made dozens of bright, modern destination posters for United in the 1950s and early 1960s; his work has since been shown at the Smithsonian and hangs in the Pentagon and the Baseball Hall of Fame.
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.
