Wholesale Navy Record Tote

A thoroughly enjoyable expedition to seek and find vinyl treasures requires the right gear. A tote large enough to comfortably fit a selection of records is mandatory, and this tote has room to accommodate more than one boxed set, should the luck of the hunt be in your favor. The graphic elements and type used in the creation of the tote bag design came directly from the Hatch family's collection of wood and metal type, as well as hand-carved imagery in the print shop. Some of these images and graphic elements were drawn by hand over a century ago and became printing blocks when the imagery was cut by hand into wood or linoleum. Before the digital art files can be created for the screen printing process, each element is carefully printed on one of our Vandercook letterpress printing presses, to maintain the integrity of weathering nearly a century and a half of work that our type and some of these printing blocks have endured. It is the texture of something well-used that we don’t want to smooth away. Like our printing blocks of type and images, these totes are sturdy and meant to work. They’re outfitted with thick canvas, flat bottoms and long handles. Size: approximately 16.5" length x 16.5" height x 3.75" width with a 28.25" strap length.
