Designed for a Swiss audience, this dynamic photo-collage poster combines disparate New York City landmarks, including part of the Brooklyn Bridge; the view of Manhattan’s West Side from the Hudson River, including the freight and passenger ferry terminals of the Lackawanna and the Central Railroad of New Jersey, respectively; and an unusual, aerial view of two of the main buildings at Rockefeller Center. The predominance of the red, white, and blue of the American flag reflects the tradition of using New York City to represent all of the United States. This poster is from the inaugural year of Swissair’s service to America, a fairly avant-garde choice for a company wanting to introduce its New York service to its passengers.
