All Bags

Y2K

Approximate Vintage: 1999
Received From: Bob Jones
Print or Image Color: Black
Background / Bag Color: Brown
I bought this bag on eBay for $10. This is now the most expensive bag I've ever bought. It's just a brown paper bag with the words "The Official Y2K Barf Bag" stenciled on it. It's cheesy and wasn't worth the cost, but I won't disparage Bob Jones about it, because he didn't post a photo of it and I bid on it sight unseen. Oh well, at it's not like I collect rare coins and bid $20,000 for some coin sight unseen.

Yangon Airways

Received From: Paul Choong
Print or Image Color: Red and Blue
Background / Bag Color: Tan
You just have to love any airline with a winged, stenciled, red elephant. It's reminiscent of operation Dumbo Drop. Don't you just love any word that has 'yang' in it?

Yelcho

Received From: Christoph Vogel
Print or Image Color: Red
Background / Bag Color: Brown
Yes, this is a plain paper lunch sack. Although it may not be a bona-fide sickbag, this bag was obtained from Yelcho (Belcho?), a Chilean Army ship in Antarctica.

Yemenia

Approximate Vintage: 2000
Received From: Manfred Kleber
Print or Image Color: Red and Blue
Background / Bag Color: White
Nice art deco sperm logo -- probably a throwback to the time when the airline was called "Semenia". The blocky Arabic writing looks something like a mall's floor plan.

Identical to 2009 version except there stars in the folds instead of some weird eyeglasses logo.

Identical to 2000 version except the stars in the folds have been replaced by some weird eyeglasses logo.

Yeti Airways

Received From: Christopher Wren
Print or Image Color: Green
Background / Bag Color: White
I LOVE the logo which sports a big foot (as well as confusing DNA strands). The bag exhorts you to 'Experience the Shangri-La', which I thought was in China.

Yeti Airways

Approximate Vintage: 2005
Received From: Thomas Homer Goetz
Print or Image Color: Green, Orange
Background / Bag Color: White
I LOVE the logo which sports a big foot (as well as confusing DNA strands). The famous barfing lady from Buddha Air appears on the back. Soon she'll be more popular than the IEEE lady.

Yeti Airways

Approximate Vintage: 2004
Received From: Gerhard Lang
Print or Image Color: Green, Brown
Background / Bag Color: White
The coolest part of this bag is what you can't see. There is printing inside this bag! It's identical to what's on the exterior, but wow!

And it features the monochrome barfing lady with straightforward uses such as vomitting, spitting, and throwing baby's excreta away.

This bag is the similar to the previous versions except the text has changed. Now the bag is for vomiting only, not for spitting or peels like the previous version says.

Yichang Transportation

Approximate Vintage: 2005
Received From: Bruce Kelly
Print or Image Color: Blue
Background / Bag Color: White
Although there is no airport in the city of Yichang near the Three Gorges Dam, the transportation system (bus? rail?) must be of sufficient lack of quality to merit this bag.

Yugoslavian Generic

Received From: Bruce Kelly
Print or Image Color: Blue
Background / Bag Color: White
This is quite possibly the best generic bag ever conceived. Clearly old and written in Serbian, it features a Eurocentric globe. Krstarica.com had a tough time translating this bag.

Croatian Barf-meister Danijel to the rescue with a translation. According to Danjiel, the box says, "If you don't handle the journey well, please use this bag". Under the picture it says, "Not to be used for food". (Prehrambene artikle means somthing like 'edible products')

Yunnan Airlines

Approximate Vintage: 2002
Received From: Henk Van Den Os
Print or Image Color: Blue
Background / Bag Color: White
This bag looks eerily similar to China Yunnan Airlines. Could it be that Yunnan now reflects a more international carrier?

Zambia Airways

Approximate Vintage: 2000
Received From: L. Jay Labe
Print or Image Color: Green and Orange
Background / Bag Color: White
Comes with a sylized bent-necked eagle that looks like a Z.

Zas

Approximate Vintage: 1995
Received From: Marc Baldewijns
Print or Image Color: Navy
Background / Bag Color: White
Zas airline of Egypt is probably NOT named after Zasu Pitts, despite the inclination to believe so.

Zip

Approximate Vintage: 2002
Received From: Paul Mundy
Print or Image Color: Green and Black
Background / Bag Color: White
Bag experts will immediately identify this imposter as a generic Canadian Bag. However, Zip, a Canadian airline itself, appropriates the generic and slaps a sticker on it to give the bag the more "homey" feeling.

Zip

Print or Image Color: Green
Background / Bag Color: White
This is the authentic Zip bag with Yuk printed right on it, not a sticker.

Zonic Shockum

Approximate Vintage: 1999
Received From: Steve Anderson
In Steve's words: My band Zonic Shockum did a hand packaged/designed limited edition barf bag with a cassette packaged within. For what it's worth, this bag is actually printed on the back of a United bag.
