TWA: Greece, the 1950s/1960s (see below) TWA (Trans World Airlines) airplane airline aviation travel poster encouraging travel to Greece aboard Trans World Airlines and featuring great art of by David Klein. Note that we have seen multiple versions of TWA: Greece posters with David Klein art. Some have a silhouette of a jet aircraft and some have an art of a prop-driven Constellation aircraft. We think the one with the Constellation image dates from the 1950s, and the jet silhouette dates from the 1960s.
Artist: David Klein
Important Added Info: Note that there are two versions of this poster, and one has a silhouette of an airplane and the other has a full image, and we think the one with the full image dates from the 1950s and that the other (the one offered here) dates from the 1960s.

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It had some creases and tears around the edges, with some extending into the image, and there was paper loss in the top right corner, extending into the tip of the last "E" in "GREECE". There were some spider-web-like tears in the background area below the "TWA". Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
