OK, Bag Monster is a moronic name, but Monster has become a catch-all phrase for "Hey, this will help you do something" This section will help you find the bags you're looking for (like you're really looking for them). Leaving everything blank will retrieve a list of all bags, however that may cause the page to load slowly.

Burma Airways

Approximate Vintage: 1987
Received From: Linda Weber
Print or Image Color: Black
Background / Bag Color: White
This Burmese (now Myanmar) bag is similar to the 1977 version, however the bag color has changed, they've moved the 4th line of Burmese onto the 3rd line, and they've completely eliminated the footnote. I wonder what was so objectionable about that darn footnote.

This Burmese (now Myanmar) bag is almost identical to the 1987 version, except they printed another line of undecipherable crap on the bottom.

Bush Bag

The following message came with the bag:

My Fellow Citizen:

Thank you for choosing Bush-bag model barf bag. It provides temporary relief for those whom are overly full.

I am not a Doctor so how and when to use it is left to your sound judgement.

The camouflage on the back is to remind people we have troops in harms way with no end in sight.

Bush (presumably George W) now has a 2nd bag that touts how nauseating he is. From the fine people of KrappyProducts.com.

This is a rather striking bag, beautiful in its simplicity, bold in its design.

C++ Barf Bag

Print or Image Color: Black
Background / Bag Color: White
It says, "Virtually in a Bag by Itself", but a more C++ like catchphrase would be "Virtually in a Class by Itself".

C++ Barf Bag

Print or Image Color: Black
Background / Bag Color: White
Much like the other C++ bag except this bag originates from Union Camp, whatever that is. According to bag leviathan Michael Hale, "Union Camp is a fairly large paper manufacturer that makes all kinds of paper products"

CAAC

Received From: Christoph Vogel
Print or Image Color: Blue
Background / Bag Color: White and Blue
Here's an example of CAAC without a picture of a plane.

Peter Brown says that CAAC stands for "China Airlines Always Cancels" instead of "Civil Aviation Administration of China"

Cabo Verde Airlines (TACV)

Approximate Vintage: 2001
Received From: Andy Rudge
Print or Image Color: Black, Navy, White
Background / Bag Color: Navy
What a design pleasure this bag is! It's multi-colored and shows a design that looks like it goes right off the page, wrapping onto the back. However it does not do so. It eye candy that leaves you wanting more. Kudos to Cabo Verde Airlines! (Oddly enough, there is no green on a Cabo Verde bag)

Cabo Verde Airlines (TACV)

Approximate Vintage: 2004
Received From: Oliver Preuss
Print or Image Color: Navy, Red
Background / Bag Color: White
Reduced the bag from graphic grandeur to a small, understated bag. Logo now looks like it was either crossed out or is the square root of ACV.

Cabo Verde Airlines (TACV)

Received From: Rainer Schwartz
Print or Image Color: White
Background / Bag Color: Blue, Green plastic
This is a really cool bag because it's covered in musical instruments. I'm not sure why though. Maybe music soothes the stomach?
