Minneapolis, MN — The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and the Target Corporation have voluntarily recalled Circo 17” Children’s Travel Cases for violations of the federal lead paint standard. The CPSC announced the product recall on December 22, 2011.

“The Circo brand label is found on the fabric handle attached to the top of the travel case. The girls’ version has a heart/butterfly/daisy pattern on either a pink or teal background with a plush butterfly attached to the zipper pull. The boys’ version has a pattern of three jet planes in red/blue/green on a red or blue airplane-patterned background with a blue plush jet plane attached to the zipper pull,” the CPSC reported.
The following travel cases are included in this recall:
