About the Item
This circa 1950 original poster, created by Luc-Marie Bayle, celebrates the global reach of TAI (Transports Aériens Intercontinentaux), one of France’s pioneering airline companies. With its elaborate and decorative cartographic design, the poster is a stunning blend of aviation history, adventure, and artistic craftsmanship.
Bayle, a naval officer, artist, and illustrator, was renowned for his detailed and whimsical map-style illustrations, often incorporating historical and maritime elements. This world map, presented in a double-hemisphere format, is rich in symbolic imagery, compass roses, and stylized routes, highlighting TAI’s international air connections.
The poster pays homage to the evolution of travel, featuring sailing ships, hot air balloons, and vintage aircraft, while the airline’s modern planes soar through the sky, marking the dawn of a new era in intercontinental air travel. The TAI logo, emblazoned with a mythical griffin, reinforces the company's identity as a leader in long-distance flights.
Founded in 1946, TAI played a crucial role in expanding French aviation across Africa, Asia, and the Pacific, before merging with UTA (Union de Transports Aériens) in 1963. This poster not only serves as an advertisement but also as a work of art that captures the romance of global exploration and the golden age of aviation.
A true collector’s piece, this mid-century travel poster embodies the excitement and elegance of post-war air travel, making it a standout example of vintage airline advertising.
