I now own a piece of QANTAS history

[NickN]

I just received my very own piece of Qantas history. A c.1965 Qantas airline travel bag with the Boeing 707 on the side. It says "A V-Jet Passenger with QANTAS Australias Round The World Airline"

It's in very original condition and a great addition to the collectibles here at home.

They're all over eBay!

I have some full beer cans from the first Qantas B747 flight from Adelaide to Auckland around 1982

This was the first International departure from Adelaide.

I doubt the beer still tastes any good.

[NickN]

Do the beer cans have any special Qantas logos on them?

I own 3 envelopes commemorating ASA's inaugural Adelaide-Naracoorte-Millicent-Adelaide service. dated 8 December 1962. Operated by Douglas DC-3 VH-ANW. the envelopes feature a illustration of a Qantas 707-138 (original turbojet powered) in the same scheme XBA's in now although without "Qantas" and kangaroo branding.

I also own a B.O.A.C. Baggage tag to YYZ (circa. 1950-1960?) flight number TC867.
