This is a tiny collection within. I have
always loved the tiny airline bags that keeps popping up on second hand
markets etc. I don't have the full story on these, but I do know that clone
dolls carried a flight bag from different airlines. My thought has been,
that these has been souvenirs carried by the airline shops around the world,
but if that actually is true, I couldn't say. Ken and Barbie had one each in
the 60's, of course saying American Airlines - still the US flag carrier.
They were made in sturdy materials with a heavy fabric in navy blue and
print in white and working zippers. Ken's bag was a darker, more midnight
blue to match his darker Captain's suit, but only with the second release in
1965. The first release, in 1964 didn't have the bag.
