This original vintage poster, designed by Walters and issued by Shaw Savill Lines, proudly showcases the company's emblem: the Shaw Savill House flag and globe, accompanied by the evocative slogan "The Flag That Circles the World." The flag depicted is reminiscent of the United Tribes of New Zealand flag, representing the rich maritime heritage shared between Great Britain and New Zealand, predating the Treaty of Waitangi in 1840.
Shaw Savill Line, based in London, was renowned for its role in facilitating trade and passenger transportation between Great Britain and New Zealand, embodying the spirit of global connectivity and maritime excellence.
Expertly mounted on linen, the poster exhibits a carefully restored tear at the top, seamlessly preserving its integrity. With its vibrant colors and captivating design, this poster is poised to make a striking statement when proudly displayed on any wall.
