Original United Air Lines 1960s Hawaii Travel Poster, Galli

About the Item

Original midcentury United Air Lines Hawaii travel poster by Stan Galli. Stunning colours and design. Galli, who worked as a commercial illustrator during the 1950s and 1960s, was commissioned to produce a number of posters for United Air Lines. In this poster he shows an Hawaiian woman wearing a lei, the traditional floral garland often presented to visitors as a sign of welcome and affection. Aviation pioneer William Boeing set up what was to become United Air Lines in 1916. The Honolulu service began in 1947. United can now claim to be one of the oldest and largest carriers in the world. This vintage poster is in excellent condition and has been professionally linen backed. Linen-backing is a conservation process allowing ease of handling and framing. It is sized 25 x 40 inches and will be sent rolled (unframed).

Original Vintage TWA Portugal 1960s Travel Airline Poster, David Klein
By David Klein
Located in Bath, Somerset
Original vintage TWA Portugal 1960s travel advertising poster featuring a wonderful design by American artist David Klein. We adore Klein's typically stylised and colourful design of a mermaid, Portuguese fishing boat and windmill. Trans World Airlines (TWA) was a major airline in the United States that operated from 1930 until it was acquired by American Airlines in 2001. It was formed as Transcontinental & Western Air to operate a route from New York City to Los Angeles, soon followed by multiple National routes. Howard Hughes acquired control of TWA in 1939, and after World War II led the expansion of the airline to serve Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, making TWA a second unofficial flag carrier of the United States after Pan Am. David Klein (1918 – 2005) was an American artist, best known for his influential work in advertising. Although he produced illustrations for Broadway theatrical productions, Hollywood films, the United States Army, and numerous corporate clients, Klein is best remembered for the iconic travel images he created for Howard Hughes and Trans World Airlines (TWA). Between approximately 1955–1965, Klein designed numerous award-winning travel advertisement posters, the bulk for TWA, many of which are now considered emblematic of the 1960s Jet Age. In 1957 New York's Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) added Klein's iconic TWA Times Square...
