Vintage Shaws Supermarket reusable off-white cotton tote bag with orange web handles and the Shaws logo in green. Very distressed. This bag carried many a load of groceries from the mainland back to Chebeague Island via ferry, and sports the prior owner’s name on the non-logo side to distinguish it from the many similar bags stashed on the stern of the “Islander” for the ferry ride back to Chebeague (see last photo for a recent image of the stern of the boat packed with dunnage!)
