Description
Grey bag of PVC coated cotton. It is slightly trapezoidal in shape with the bottom slightly longer than the top. There is white piping around the edges of the larger sides which also have identical decoration.
"TEAL" appears in large white letters (150 x 72 mm). Below in blue is "NEW ZEALAND's INTERNATIONAL AIRLINE" (224 x 10 mm). The TEAL logo of a stylised flying fish (or Maroro) appears in gold between TEAL and the slogan on the right side.
A metal zipper runs across the top and part way down the sides. Just below where the zipper ends, a shoulder strap is attached with round metal clasps. The strap is 17 mm wide and has a clasp that allows it to be adjusted. There are 5 round metal legs attached to the base, each is only about 8 mm long.
The interior is mostly unlined. There is a support sewn into the base and cardboard supports 80 mm wide just inside the top. The cardboard is covered by a flap and attached with round metal clasps which are visible from the outside 34 mm from the top.
Sewn just inside the top is a tag that says: "A Deco Plastics Product, Duffy Electronics Pty. Ltd., Sydney, NSW, P.V.C. coated cotton".
