Essential roomy and sturdy bag for adventure, travel, school and vacation features a hand cut and machine sewn applique of Cthulhu, the high priest of the old ones, insane gods that ruled Earth before men.
You might think that it takes a special kind of person to embrace a mountainous and insane pulpy headed monster with tentacles for facial features. But this design is graphic and cool, and fun for everyone. Even my 75 year old father, who doesn't know Cthulhu from yoohoo, loved it and got one appliquéd on his sweatshirt.
But horror fans know that Cthulhu was the High Priest of the Great Old Ones, a race of gods that inhabited earth before men came. According to HP Lovecraft, "When the stars were right, They could plunge from world to world through the sky; but when the stars were wrong, They could not live. They all lay in stone houses in Their great city of R'lyeh." So, now waiting, dreaming of their liberation, and of "ways to shout and kill and revel and enjoy themselves, and all the earth aflame with a holocaust of ecstasy and freedom." I think that's really creepy and kind of thrilling.

This brown "field style" messenger bag is nice and sturdy. All of the seams are double stitched. The straps are comfortable cotton webbing. It has a large main compartment, interior zipped pocket, and a full-width front flap that is secured with two brass toggles. I can fit my laptop, notebook and 1200 page text book all inside.
Other Details ~
Length : 16" (taller than it is wide)
Width : 12"
Depth : 3.5"
Strap : 2" wide adjustable from 20" to 36"
The bag is 100% cotton heavy enzyme-washed canvas and completely washable, but I'd recommend turning it inside out to protect the appliqués. The appliqués are eco-felt, recycled from post-consumer waste plastic bottles.
This pack will be shipped in a padded envelope to reduce packing waste and minimize your postage. You can press out any wrinkles with an iron on medium-high.
