About the Item

Original Sabena vintage travel poster. Archivally linen —backed in very fine condition, A, ready to frame. The image comprises three surfboard-style sections depicting New York to Brussels and to the Heart of Paris via Sabena, Belgian World Airlines. Sabena, short for Société Anonyme Belge d'Exploitation de la Navigation Aérienne, was Belgium's national airline from 1923 until its bankruptcy in 2001. Sabena produced numerous vintage travel posters during its operational years to promote tourism and its flight routes. One notable poster is titled "Fun Brussels, Helicopter to Paris." This poster likely depicts Brussels as a vibrant and exciting destination, highlighting the convenience of traveling from Brussels to Paris via helicopter. Sabena was known for its innovative approach to air travel, and the depiction of a helicopter flight to Paris would have been cutting-edge at the time. One of the surfboard-style images features New York, the next the World’s Fair in Brussels, and, of course, the Eiffel Tower of Paris. The "Fun Brussels, Helicopter to Paris" poster would have aimed to attract travelers by emphasizing the speed and convenience of air travel between these two iconic European cities. It also reflects the glamorous image of air travel during the mid-20th century, when flying was considered a luxurious and adventurous experience. Overall, vintage travel posters like "Fun Brussels, Helicopter to Paris" offer a glimpse into the golden age of aviation and remind us of the romanticism and allure associated with air travel during that era. This is an Original Lithograph Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction. FREE Continental USA shipping. This original vintage poster is in excellent condition with an archival linen backing and is ready to frame. It comes with a certificate of Authenticity with an embedded image of the poster.
