At the forefront, there's a powerful image of a Masai woman, symbolizing the rich cultural heritage of Africa. Surrounding her are photos that depict the diverse wildlife and landscapes of the continent, including zebras, a leopard, a gnu, and a lion. There is also an image of a Mount Kenya sign and a bustling market scene, further emphasizing the adventure and allure of Africa.
In the bottom left corner, the poster features the SAS aircraft livery from the 1970s, providing a nostalgic touch for aviation enthusiasts. On the right side, the SAS logotype is prominently displayed, reinforcing the brand's identity.
