BOAC South America

This exceedingly rare and authentic vintage poster, issued by BOAC in 1959, was created to promote their flights to South America, specifically highlighting the vibrant destination of Rio de Janeiro.

The poster features a dynamic night scene of the lively Rio Carnival against a dark background, showcasing a woman adorned in an elaborate red carnival costume. The energy and excitement of Rio's famous festival are beautifully captured in this striking design.

This is the large-size version of the poster, a rare find that is seldom offered for sale.

The poster is in very good condition, displaying only light edge wear. Its vivid colors remain remarkably vibrant, making this piece a superb example of mid-century aviation art.
