Designed and reworked by hand by intermission, Mexico City.
Materials: Vintage French Foreign Legion tent canvas, circa 1960s; WWII U.S. Army M1936 web belt used as shoulder strap.

Color: Khaki canvas with olive drab webbing.
Markings: Stamps, stencils or dates on canvas and belt
Condition: New. Made from vintage military materials; the canvas and webbing retain their original age marks, wear and patina. One of a kind.

Two pieces of military history joined into one bag: heavy tent canvas from the French Foreign Legion, dating from around the 1960s, and a U.S. Army M1936 web belt, a standard piece of American military equipment during the Second World War, reworked as the shoulder strap. Cut and sewn by hand by intermission into an oversized, slouching tote, the piece retains the patina and material character of both components. No two are alike.

Intermission exists in the space between documentation and devotion an ongoing archive of cultural fragments that refuse to vanish. Each title within our portfolio is selected not for trend, but for tension: between what was meant to disappear and what insists on remaining.

We work with objects that speak quietly but persistently publications, recordings, and editions that define the undercurrents of art, sound, and design. Together they form a living record of marginal brilliance, a collection that privileges significance over scale.

Every Intermission title is handled as an artifact. We believe that preservation is an act of reverence one that begins the moment you open a cover or unspool a tape.

To experience a piece, do so slowly. Allow the air to touch the paper, let light fall softly over each page. Avoid excess pressure; handle edges rather than surfaces. Each mark, fold, or patina is part of its passage through time evidence of care rather than decay.

We encourage collectors to engage not only with the content, but with the gesture of preservation itself: a quiet commitment to memory.
