My search for Africa vintage travel posters online has become infectious, and my virtual collection now numbers at more than sixty posters from the 1940s, 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s.
I came across this North African one from Air France the other day (pictured above), such amazing colours and is up there as one of my favourites. I also managed to find some Qantas ones; the teal one pictured below is my pick.
If you are keen on any BOAC posters, then you may want to visit the British Airways as they have a dedicated section showcasing all their travel posters through the decades (which includes the early days of Imperial Airways and BOAC). It also looks like you can purchase copies, I am not sure if they deliver outside of the UK (if you find out be sure to let me know!).
To view more of my finds, visit our dedicated Pinterest board.
