TWA - New York Times Square
(64cm x 102cm)
In the Post World War ll era, Howard Hughes as the owner of TWA was a dominant force in expanding and promoting the routes flown by his company. As the economy was vastly improving, airline travel for business and pleasure was on the upswing and posters such as this were instrumental in promoting this form of travel.
Times Square in New York is often called the center of the world. With its dramatic colors and neon signs, it was and remains a popular destination for all visitors. This image was created by the American artist, David Klein and is viewed by many as his greatest poster. Its bold colors and objects portray the energy that typifies Times Square . This image was truly one of the Mad Men style of the 1950's.This image shows a jet plane in the right upper portion of the poster.

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.
