The Matson Navigation Company was founded in 1882 by William Matson. The company is still in existence today, and is a publicly traded transportation company. It began as a transporter of products to and from the Hawaiian Islands and in later years added other destinations in the Pacific Ocean. This particular poster features the Asian Pacific island of Fiji. Other posters in this series include Australia and Tahiti. Fiji is advertised here as being reachable by the SS Mariposa and the SS Monterey cruise liners.

Louis Macouillard (1913-1987) was an American artist born in San Francisco, California and educated at the California College of Arts and Crafts. He was a painter who specialized in watercolors, as we can see in this poster design. During his career, his work was part of many posters, books, magazines, and commercial advertising.

  • If there's anything you want to know about posters, vintage or more modern, there's nothing Mr Ross doesn't know. His open and friendly manner helps one to choose the most suitable material whether for decoration, investment or whatever... I can't recommend him highly enough.

  • Just wanted to say thanks for the poster. You sent it on Thursday and it was delivered the following Monday (nearly quicker than it took us to get home) to our house in Perth, Australia. We have just had it framed. We love it; it goes perfectly with the room.

  • The Ross Gallery has the best selection of vintage posters I have ever seen. Seriously, if you are in the market, they are the people. And, they know everything there is to know about the posters' provenance.
