Illustrated by influential American artist David Klein, this design features a wonderfully stylized image of Times Square and has become one of the rarest and most sought after travel posters of all time.

Hughes and TWA collaborated with Klein on many posters during the height of the golden-era of aviation from the 50’s through to the 70’s. These posters have become synonymous with that golden, mid-Century era of design. This piece has been backed on museum quality linen to ensure its preservation for the decades to come. less
