Scope and content
A colour poster for the Aer Lingus service from London to Dublin showing a Rolls Royce on the runway beside a plane wing with an Aer Lingus plane visible in the background. Poster is captioned in purple writing 'London - Dublin from £13.18. tourist return' at the top and at the bottom 'fly by Aer Lingus Irish Air Lines, Viscount, Rolls-Royce propeller turbines'.
Strange as it now seems, air travel was once perceived as a glamorous activity. This elegant poster advertises the Aer Lingus service between London and Dublin.
