Dear Mr. Norman:

In your undated letter, received in this office September 29, 2004, on behalf of Debbee Inc., you requested a classification ruling.

The item consists of 5 pieces, which includes a zippered tote bag measuring approximately 19” x 12” x 7”, sleeping mask, knit blanket and a padded pillow in a drawstring storage bag. Each item is manufactured of 100% polyester man-made fiber textile material. You have stated that the items will be marketed and sold as a set to travelers so that they can sleep while traveling. However, for classification purposes the items are not considered to be a set. Each item will be separately classified. Your samples are being returned as requested.
