Escape Plan

awesome vintage travel posters via ffffound

But I'm going to Iowa instead. I do love these though, back when flying was glamorous a la Mad Men. Also, I just read this post from this time last year and clearly had a much better handle on things than I do this year. Lessons learned and heeded.

great posters! ah yes, wish flying were still chic and sophisticated. Well, maybe not, as my sweats probably would be looked down upon ;)

I love vintage travel posters. My upstairs neighbor was the artist for many of TWA's posters in the 50s and 60s and still has the original paintings that became the posters. So cool....
