DescriptionThis is a plastic bag from the department store Kistler-Collister. The bag is shaped like a vertical rectangle, and when folded out has a flat bottom so it can stand upright. There are two handles attached to both the front and the back at two points. The bag is white and purple, with the front and back in white and the sides in purple. The white sections have large cursive writing in purple that reads "KISTLER-COLLISTER." In the purple sections the same name is written in white sideways up the bag. Underneath is the name of the manufacturer which reads "THE REUBEN SCHNEIDER CO. / MADE IN HONG KONG," also in purple.
