This is vintage original travel poster was issued by the India Ministry of Transport & Communication in 1958. This poster features the colorful image of a Kathakali dancer from the form of traditional dance originating in the Malabar Coast area of Southwestern India. The lower margin indicates February 1958 so thus the date.  The lower margin indicates this poster was printed by The Eagle Lithographing Co. Private Limited Company of Calcutta.   

The poster has a couple short tears without loss on the upper right edge and a couple small nicks off the margin on the lower right hand side not affecting the image. This vintage original poster looks otherwise unused and is in very good condition overall.
