Vintage airline travel posters from the '30's thru 60's advertising Rio, the Cidade Maravilhosa

Wow....5 days to fly to Rio.

Nice posters CFK, thanks for putting them up.

Those are cool!

Wow! I'd love to have framed versions of a couple of those! I found the bottom Braniff poster. Do you have a link for the bottom Varig poster? I'll have a "Rio room" in my new house.

Thanks for sharing CFK.

Though those posters predate my first trip to Rio in 1986 on Pan Am. It brought back wonderful memories of my early visits to Brasil. Those were the best of times!

I'd like to see a modern day airline that has the balls to copy the Pan Am poster 😍

Bwana,

the Varig poster is currently listed on Ebay

If the link should fail go to Ebay; posters/modern (1900-1979)
This is a 1960 poster.

Thanks, CFK!

Aeropostal poster is from the early 30's. The Airline was run by the French until January 1935, when it's name was changed to Línea Aeropostal Venezolana (LAV)
