An Unfolded Travel Poster (measures 25" x 40" [64 x 102 cm]) (Learn More)

TWA: New York, the 1960s aviation airplane airline travel poster ("Fly TWA") designed to promote tourism in New York City via Trans World Airlines, and featuring colorful David Klein artwork of Times Square with a silhouette of a jet flying above. Note that there is a similar poster from the 1950s but it has full-color art of a Constellation prop-plane instead of the silhouette of a jet.

Artist: David Klein

Important Added Info: Note that we previously auctioned a similar poster to this, which sold for $3,950. It was very similar, but it did NOT have the "up up and away" tagline described below. Since that tagline was only used in 1967 and then the posters were withdrawn, this poster is surely even more rare than the one without the tagline, and both posters are surely among the finest 1960s travel poster there are, and likely David Klein's most memorable work. Note that the "Up Up and Away TWA" tagline was first used in 1967 and lasted about a year. "Up, Up and Away" was pop song most famously sung by the Fifth Dimension, and an advertising agency came up with the idea of using it to promote TWA. It was a hit but there was a lawsuit over the use of the song, and when that was settled, TWA had switched advertising agencies."

Condition: very good. The poster was never folded. It has a 3/4" tear in the left of the bottom border that has a small piece of tape on the back. It has a few minor creases scattered throughout but is generally in nice condition (see our image).
