Coastal New England is one of America's proudest gems. Rocky coastlines from Maine to Connecticut are dotted with lighthouses, fishing villages, and dramatic shores. These beautiful features have long made it a tourist destination, as this 1950s United Air Lines poster shows. A classic fisherman takes center stage, his hand-cast net overflowing with fresh fish. United's latest model Douglas DC-6 soars east in the background.

Joseph Feher (1908-1987) was a Hungarian born watercolorist who immigrated to Chicago during the post-WWI years. There he studied illustration at the Chicago Art Institute. He first visited Hawaii in 1934, where he fell in love with the community, culture, and natural beauty of the islands. He moved there permanently in 1947, and he continued his successful illustration career alongside teaching for 40 years. He created many posters for United Air Lines, as well as Hawaiian tourism maps and posters for the Dole Pineapple Company.

  • 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.
