This vintage original poster was issued by British Overseas Airways Corporation to promote travel to Europe.    This poster features a colorful image of a mother and her young son admiring the wares of a balloon vendor in front of one of Europe’s many tourist attractions with text that reads: 

Europe is for Fun with B.O.A.C. British Overseas Airways Corporation  

The lower right corner is printed with a document code indicating a 1961 publication date and the lower left corner indicates “Printed In Great Britain”.  

This vintage original poster is free of tape and pinholes and shows moderate handling wear including some slight creasing in image area and edges lightly bumped in places.   There is a short tear of less than a half inch on the bottom edge without loss of paper.  The colors remain vibrant and the poster displays nicely.  Overall condition is very good.
