VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image shows a vintage advertisement for "Titanine 'Satin Finish'" which is described as being for speed. The ad features an inset of a telegram from Cable and Wireless Limited, congratulating Titanine on the special finish provided to British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC) Comets contributing to their success in obtaining air records between London and Johannesburg. Below the telegram, it states that all three D. H. Comets were coated with Titanine "Satin Finish. " At the bottom of the ad, bold text proclaims "TITANINE THE WORLD'S PREMIER DOPE, " followed by smaller text indicating that it's produced by Titanine-Emailite Limited located in Colindale, London, N. W. 9. The term "dope" in this context refers to a type of lacquer or varnish used on aircraft surfaces for protection and finishing purposes; it does not refer to any illicit substance.
