There is a small restored scratch above the second "H" and four restored small needle holes near the top edge at the left corner; poster should display beautifully once framed.
A striking mid-century poster promoting TWA flights to Philadelphia. A gilded statue of William Penn dominates the composition against a turbulent night sky, with Independence Hall's white steeple rising in the background. The airline's bold red logotype and a silhouetted jet complete the design, a confident piece of American commercial art from the golden age of aviation.
