A vivid blue promotional poster advertising the British Overseas Airways Corporation's services throughout the Empire.
The B.O.A.C. was the state owned airline formed after the merger of Imperial Airways and British Airways Ltd. in 1939. The airline continued operating during World War II.
The poster makes a reference to the "Speedbird", which was the logo designed for the B.O.A.C and present on the flying boat cross section on the poster . A diagram on the lower centre shows the globe with the routes of the B.O.A.C. from London throughout the rest of the world.
Printed colour. [POSTERP405]
