This original vintage travel poster, likely from the 1950s, entices travelers to explore the wonders of Kenya as a captivating travel destination.
Featuring the rare advertisement letters of BOAC (British Overseas Airways Corporation), the poster's text beckons viewers to "Make a date with the Sun... ...in wonderful Kenya. Fly there by BOAC."
Against a vibrant orange background, the poster showcases an outline of an elephant adorned with iconic Kenyan imagery. From the majestic Mount Kenya and a regal lion to the serene Mombasa Beach and spirited tribal dancers, the poster captures the diverse allure of Kenya's landscapes and cultures.
Despite minor wear, including a 7-inch tear at the bottom, this poster has been carefully conserved and mounted on linen, preserving its vintage charm and inviting travelers to embark on an unforgettable journey to Kenya. This poster would make a stunning addition to any wall.
