This charming original vintage poster, issued by Transports Aériens Intercontinentaux (TAI) in the 1960s, captures the essence of their flights to Africa. It features a native woman gracefully carrying her basket atop her head amidst the backdrop of a modern town, showcasing the blend of tradition and modernity. With its lovely colors and evocative imagery, the poster invites viewers to embark on a journey to Africa with TAI.
Transports Aériens Intercontinentaux, a private French airline headquartered at Orly Airport in Paris, operated flights to various destinations, including Africa, until its merger with Union Aéromaritime de Transport in 1963.
Although displaying signs of age with light margin wear, a tear in the lower left corner, and fold marks in the upper corners, this poster remains a captivating piece of aviation history that would enhance any collection when framed.
