Vomitorium

Approximate Vintage: 2004
Received From: Wendy Tremayne
Print or Image Color: Red, Black
Background / Bag Color: White
On August 17, 2004, Wendy Tremayne, a New York City artist/activist held an event called The Vomitorium. This event was staged to create awareness about the excesses of American Society. And of course overindulgence in food leads to vomiting, for which these bags were designed. Kudos to you, Wendy.

Vote Or Vomit (Trump)

Approximate Vintage: 2020
Received From: Mitch O'Connell
Print or Image Color: Black, Green
Background / Bag Color: White
The message of this bag is that you either vote or a skeletonized version of Trump wins, in which case you vomit. At first glance, it looks like the bag was created by Mitch McConnell, but on closer inspection it's Mitch O'Connell.

Voter's Vomit Valet

Approximate Vintage: 2008
Received From: Bruce Kelly
Print or Image Color: Blue, Green, Red
Background / Bag Color: White, Brown
This bag is intended for the US Presidential Election of 2008. It says "Recommended for Sufferers of Mild to Severe Candidate Antipathy. DON'T VOTE WITHOUT IT!"

Voting Booth Vomit Bag

Approximate Vintage: 2016
Received From: Bruce Kelly
Print or Image Color: Black, Green, Red, Blue
Background / Bag Color: White
I got this bag on eBay but neglected to ask if it was just a crappy sticker on a Southwest Bag (it is). Still, it's an interesting political statement. The bag says "When you can't believe what you just did ... Voting Booth Vomit Bag"

Vueling

Approximate Vintage: 2007
Received From: Cedrick Gauthier-Lacognata
Print or Image Color: Yellow and Gray
Background / Bag Color: White
Just a bunch of dots adorn this bag, as though the contents of the bag have leaked through slightly.

Vueling

Approximate Vintage: 2013
Received From: Rainer Schwartz
Print or Image Color: Black, Yellow
Background / Bag Color: White
This Spanish carrier printed the words upside down the bag so if you turn the full sack around to read it, you get dirty. My friend Ken points out that the bag should warn the person next to you to "Keep Calm & DON'T Breathe"

Vueling

Approximate Vintage: 2013
Received From: Federico Mandrile
Print or Image Color: Black, Yellow
Background / Bag Color: White
Exactly like the other 2013 Vueling except the words are printed right side up, not upside down.

Vueling

Approximate Vintage: 2016
Received From: Maria Dolores Prieto
Print or Image Color: Yellow, Black
Background / Bag Color: White
It's an old fashioned game of find the matching items to help you bide your time away! This bag says "Use me if you feel sick", "Si Te marlas usame", "Se ti viene il mal d'aria usami".

"Or try to find the matching pairs", "Y si no, pudees jugar a encontrar las pareias", "se no puoi giocare a trovare le coppie"

Yes, the bag is printed upside down.

We <3 you to the moon and bag

Apparently, Vueling also love places (whatever that means)

Wamos Air

Approximate Vintage: 2016
Received From: Frank Mulliri
Print or Image Color: Purple, Green
Background / Bag Color: White
Nice big letters. This airline was formerly known as Air Pullmantur

Wardair

Approximate Vintage: 1988
Received From: Steve Rickett
Print or Image Color: Red and Blue
Background / Bag Color: White
The picture on this bag is impossible. The bag is not freestanding, yet you are supposed to use both hands to close it, as if you are playing cat's cradle. Front and back of bag differ only by the "Made in Canada" message. Nice half maple leaf effect.

Wardair

Approximate Vintage: 1997
Received From: Wolfgang Franken
Print or Image Color: Black
Background / Bag Color: Generic White
Has printing in English and French. The Airline's name or logo does not appear anywhere on the bag. The bag says it is made in Canada.

Washington Times State of the Union

Approximate Vintage: 2014
Print or Image Color: Black, Red, White
Background / Bag Color: White, Red
On the eve of the 2014 State of the Union speech, the notoriously conservative Washington Times released a full page anti-Obama advertisement with instructions that you could follow to create a barf bag out of the page.

The ad copy says

THE STATE OF THE UNION BARF BAG
MAKE YOUR OWN
Use When You've Had A Stomach-full Of Old Phony Political Hope and Change

Wataniya Airways

Approximate Vintage: 2010
Received From: Oliver Conradi
Print or Image Color: Red, Purple
Background / Bag Color: White
This airlines operated for just over 2 years before closing shop. The design on the bag is tiny and pointless with an awful logo and the barely visible text wataniyaairways.com.

Webjet

Received From: Denir Camargo
Print or Image Color: Black, Green
Background / Bag Color: White Plastic
Much like the other Webjet bag except this one says "connecte-se", whatever that signifies.

Webjet Linhas Aereas

Received From: Denir Camargo
Print or Image Color: Black, Green
Background / Bag Color: White Plastic
So the airline is called Webjet, yet there is no website noted on the bag. Webjet was only in operation from 2005-2012.

This bag is identical to the other Webjet bag except that this one is manufactured by Jaya, not Supply.

Weesam Express

Approximate Vintage: 2006
Received From: Manfred Lepp
Print or Image Color: Red
Background / Bag Color: Blue
I'm not sure whether the poor quality printing of the white Weesam Express bag is worse than the horrible color contrast of the red bag. In any event, there's a schedule printed on the back and a ship printed on the front along with an unidentifiable abstraction.

West Air

Approximate Vintage: 2012
Received From: Xusheng Chen
Print or Image Color: Red, White
Background / Bag Color: White, Red
This bag is a branding nightmare. Is the airline known as West Air? China West Air? HNA? What?

Nice dragon logo, plus you rarely see a bag with a computer mouse on it.
