AIR FRANCE / ISRAEL. 1949.


39x23 1/4 inches, 99x59 cm. Hubert Baille & Cie., Paris.
Condition A. Framed.

Standing outside the walls for Jerusalem, a woman is carrying the national flag of the State of Israel. This early Israeli travel poster appeared only a year after the state was formed. Prior to the formation of El Al, Air France had an active connection with the young state of Israel. Two posters from 1949 advertise their service and another was designed in 1951. Not in Air France.
