Description

David Klein “Fly TWA Jets” — Original 1960s Boston Lithograph Poster | Linen‑Backed, Conservation Mounted, Certificate of Authenticity

 

David Klein’s original “Fly TWA Jets — Boston” poster captures mid‑century travel glamour with a bold colonial drum and American eagle at center, a three‑masted schooner on the horizon, and iconic Boston landmarks flanking the composition. A TWA jet streams overhead, linking historic New England imagery to the Jet‑Set Era. This authentic 1950s lithograph is not a reproduction. We professionally conservation‑mount and linen‑back each poster using acid‑free materials so it arrives ready to frame. Condition: very good. Certificate of Authenticity included.

Trans World Airlines (TWA), founded in 1924 as Transcontinental & Western Air, expanded dramatically under Howard Hughes in the 1940s–1950s—adding international routes to Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. TWA’s iconic 1950s advertising, often commissioned from David Klein, promoted the romance of air travel and helped define the Jet‑Set Era. This vintage TWA poster exemplifies that era of aviation marketing and remains a sought‑after collectible among vintage poster collectors, aviation memorabilia enthusiasts, and mid‑century modern decorators.
