  1. I am assuming these fantastic images are posters or perhaps magazine advertisements. Is that true? And do we know when they were designed? Again I am guessing the 1930s (except for the TWA image which looks newer).

    They still hold their charm, 75 years later.

  2. Hels, I looked again at the catalogue and very few of the images are dated. Most of them are lithographs which may suggest they were posters but I am not familiar enough with printing process to say!

    I'll bet Hitler had something to do with it.
