The right margin of the poster was not cut down after printing and the printer's registration marks can still be seen on both edges; there is minor edge and corner wear and smudges; this colorful midcentury airline travel poster should display wonderfully once framed.
A bold and beautifully illustrated jet-age travel poster promoting BOAC service to Nassau, Bahamas. Artist Hayes captures a dancer mid-spin in a swirling orange and ruffled skirt against a vivid yellow ground, conveying the warmth and energy of the Caribbean with confident, graphic flair. A strong example of early 1960s airline poster art at its best.
