This poster was created in 1959 for Howard Hughes’ Trans World Airlines promoting their routes to Los Angeles, California. Illustrated by influential American artist David Klein, this design features a wonderfully stylized view of the California sunshine over the San Gabriel bell tower.
Hughes and TWA collaborated with Klein on many posters during the height of the golden-era of aviation from the 50’s through to the 70’s. These posters have become synonymous with that golden, mid-Century era of design.
