This vintage original Atomic Age travel poster promotes Nassau and the Bahamas as a travel destination. Friendly Atomic Age beachgoers wade ashore from a crystal clear sea as a statuesque beauty reclines in the surf forming a Kennedyesque Camelot era idealized seaside paradise vacation scene.  While not technically in the Caribbean Sea, The Bahamas is a full member of CARICOM (Caribbean Community) and considered part of the wider Caribbean region.  The lower margin indicates this poster was designed by the Kelly, Nason, Inc. advertising agency and shows a date of 11/10/63.  

This vintage original is free of tape or pinholes and shows moderate handling wear including some bumping and few small chips and short tears to the edges in spots.  Overall condition is very good.
