EDITORS COMMENTS
this vintage print showcases the cover design of an Imperial Airways map from 1933. The design is a stunning example of the Art Deco style, with its harmonious blend of geometric shapes, bold lines, and a palette of soothing grey, blue, and white tones. The central focus of the cover is a stylized representation of an aeroplane soaring through the sky, its wings outstretched and propellers in motion, symbolizing the spirit of adventure and progress embodied by air travel during this era. The map itself is a testament to the extensive reach of Imperial Airways' passenger services, covering various destinations across Europe. London, the United Kingdom's capital city, is prominently featured at the heart of the map, with key European cities such as Paris in France, Basle and Zurich in Switzerland, Brussels in Belgium, and Cologne (Koln) in Germany, all connected by intricate, winding lines that represent the air routes. The map is priced at two shillings, reflecting the affordability and accessibility of air travel during this period. This piece of history transports us back to an age of glamour and excitement, when the world seemed smaller and the possibilities for exploration seemed endless. Imperial Airways was a British airline that operated from 1924 to 1974, and this map serves as a fascinating glimpse into the company's rich history and the evolution of air travel during the early 20th century. This print is an essential addition to any collection focusing on aviation history, graphic design, or vintage travel memorabilia.
