Own a piece of aviation history! This large poster is one of the last original prints created by famous advertising artist Edward McKnight Kauffer (1890-1954). Referred to as the "Picasso of Advertising Design," Kauffer was a graphic designer whose clients included Barnum and Bailey Circus and the New York Subways. Towards the end of his successful career, he was asked to create a line of posters for American Airlines that would promote travel in Boston as well as California, Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico. ?American Airlines in Boston,? is an excellent example of this project. This large poster (30x39.5?) uses bright colors and patriotic symbols to reinforce the historic importance as well as the fun that Boston has to offer. The bold purple background will command attention on your walls the same way it did when used as an advertising tool in the fifties.
