EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the golden age of aviation with this poster from Western Airways Ltd, showcasing their Air Express service between Bristol and Cardiff. Dated back to the 1950s, this vintage advertisement promises a quick 15-minute flight for just 9 shillings and sixpence for a single fare. With connections to major cities such as Liverpool, Birmingham, Plymouth, Bournemouth, Brighton, and even the Isle of Wight and Channel Islands, this air travel option was a game-changer for leisure and business travelers alike. The bold red and white design, featuring the sleek silhouette of a Western Airways plane against a grey sky, exudes a sense of modernity and adventure. The tagline "Air Taxis -- see your city from the air" adds to the allure of this unique mode of transportation. The Royal Aeronautical Society's National Aerospace Library preserves this piece of aviation history, reminding us of a time when flying was a novelty and the freedom of the skies was within reach for many. This poster is not only a testament to the advancements in aeronautical technology but also to the spirit of exploration and innovation that defined the 20th century.
