About the Item

Original OUR AMERICA TRANSPORTATION #4, horizontal vintage WWII time frame Transportation creates new wonders. Professional acid-free archival linen backed mint condition. This #4 for Transportation has two variations produced by Coca-Cola to feature the future of modern air travel. This is a rare variation of the Coca-Cola Our America transportation series. This poster #4 for transportation is the only Coca-Cola Our America poster that had two different versions. This poster is in excellent condition. The initially issued fold narks were flattened, and the touch-up work is exceptionally well done. So well done, you would have to look to find them! As mint as this poster can be! A futuristic plane design is shown as "transportation creates new wonders' as the double-decker plane with lower and upper passenger loading. You can stop and drop off passengers directly at the plane from your car! You can arrive by boat or water taxi or by using the new suspended freeways. The scene has semi-delivery trucks driving directly to the loading bays. The airplane engines are still prop vs. jet engines. These posters were created during World War II for educational purposes and to help support America during wartime. This is an Original Lithograph Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction. This poster is professionally acid-free conservation mounted, linen-backed, and in excellent condition. This is an Original Lithograph Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction.

Original New York Fly TWA - Trans World Airlines vintage travel poster
By David Klein
Located in Spokane, WA
NEW YORK FLY TWA is an original vintage travel poster created by David Klein. Size 25.25" x 40". Archival linen is backed in very good condition, Grade A, and is ready to frame. No damage, no restoration, no stains, no tape, just an excellent condition original. Klein is best remembered for the dozens of destination advertisements he created for TWA during the 1950s and ‘60s. For Destination New York, Klein creates a stacked perspective of some of the city’s best-known sights, piling landmark upon a landmark – St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Rockefeller Plaza’s Prometheus et al. – then crowning them with a bust of the Statue of Liberty, and the typeface of the New York Times. TWA (Trans World Airlines) was formed in 1924 as Transcontinental & Western Air. The airline's first route was from New York to Los Angeles, followed by multiple National routes. The airline expanded to serve Europe, the Middle East, and Asia after WWII when the company was under Howard Hughes's owner's control from 1939 until 1961. Hughes was a dominant force in expanding and promoting his company's routes. The economy was vastly improving, and travel by air for business and pleasure...
