Est: $700 - $1,000
JOHN BAINBRIDGE (1918-1978) ORIENT LINE / BOOMERANG TRIPS. 1958. 40x25 inches, 101 1/2x63 1/2 cm. The Baynard Press, [London]. Condition B+: tears, minor losses, creases, abrasions and foxing in margins; creases in image. Paper. Bainbridge, born in Sydney, New South Wales, was art director at the National Theatre in Melbourne, then moved to England in 1945, where he worked as an exhibition, theatre set and costume designer, a poster artist and documentary filmmaker. He designed travel posters for the British European Airways, Irish Air Lines, the SS France, London Transport (1953-1957) and the Orient Line, many of which convey a sense of humor and graphic playfulness. Throughout the 1950s the Orient Line advertised "Boomerang Trips" in magazines and with posters, promoting round trips from England to Australia, (and back again, like a boomerang). Bainbridge accomplishes his promotion by making a ship gangway appear in the form of a boomerang.

Original Vintage Irish Air Lines Poster Boston - Shannon - Dublin by John Bainbridge c1958
Est: $1,000 - $1,500
In the 1950's intercontinental air travel was growing rapidly with the newer airplanes now able to carry passengers over longer distances. This amusing graphic very effectively lets the viewer know that Irish Air Lines is now flying from Boston to Shannon and then continuing to Dublin, Ireland. The passenger is clearly comfortable and "in good hands". This clever image was designed by John Bainbridge (1919 - 1978). He was born in Sydney, Australia and pursued his art education in Australia. He was a talented artist whose work was shown in many exhibitions in Australia while he worked as the Art Director of the National Theatre in Melbourne. Just after the end of World War II, he immigrated to England and continued his career. His graphic design style is clearly influenced by Edward McKnight Kauffer who was a strong influence. Bainbridge went on to design many posters in the 1950's for the London Underground Authority. This is an Original Vintage Poster. It is not a reproduction. This poster is conservation mounted, linen backed and in excellent condition. We guarantee the authenticity of all of our posters.
