OTTO NIELSEN (1916-2000)
Scandinavian Airlines System / New York by SAS. 1952. Offset lithograph poster. 100¼x61 cm, 39½x24 inches; The Aller Press, Ltd., [Copenhagen].
The style, glamour, hustle and bustle of New York's Times Square, visible in the form of fashionable multitudes thronging the area beneath the Times Building from which the area derives its name. At least one neon sign is partially visible on the left side, the "ENEX," which was part of the larger "Kleenex" advertisement. "This is one of a few posters that highlight the area's architecture, most notably through the inclusion in the background of the Continental Building, completed in 1931 at Forty-First Street and Broadway" (New York p. 163).
