United Airlines Vintage Original Poster

Thank you for viewing.

This is a vintage original poster for United Airlines promotion. The poster is genuine and completely original. You rarely see this kind of poster these days. I purchased it 20 years ago and haven't seen another authentic one since.

There is some damage to the outer linen backing of the actual poster. This is a very old poster.

Framing it will give your room a Hawaiian feel, which is great for your home, but why not place it in your workplace or shop to create a Hawaiian atmosphere? When framed and displayed, it truly looks like a work of art.

■ What is linen backing?
Linen backing the poster with canvas cloth prevents the paper from folding or tearing.
It also stretches out wrinkles. Linen backing in Japan is the same as backing for hanging scrolls, and is the work of a mounting shop.
Linen backing is flexible to humidity, so it is suitable for the Japanese climate.

What is linen backing?

Linen backing is a preservation method used to mount and preserve vintage posters so they can be displayed or framed without damaging their value. Vintage posters are stabilized by linen backing and restoration, protecting the poster from damage. Linen backing keeps the poster flat and smooth, making it easy to handle, store, or assemble. If the poster has minor defects, linen backing and restoration will increase its value. Linen-backed posters sell better than non-linen-backed posters because they appeal to both collectors and non-collectors.
