A rare and delightful original vintage poster issued by KLM Royal Dutch Airlines in the late 1950s, designed by celebrated British graphic artist Tom Eckersley.
The poster features a charming, stylized zebra with bold brown and white stripes, smiling as it moves across a sky filled with diagonal blue and white stripes. A bright yellow tag reads “Most Things to Most Places,” highlighting KLM’s extensive air freight capabilities. The classic KLM roundel and crest sit prominently at the bottom, emphasizing the brand’s identity.
Founded in 1919, KLM is the oldest airline in the world still operating under its original name, with a strong heritage in both passenger and cargo services.
In excellent condition, showing only light age wear. Professionally mounted on linen with an acid-free barrier for preservation.
