About the Item

Very nice poster made by Georg Gerster 🇨🇭(1928-2019), a Swiss journalist and photographer, specialized in aerial photography, and recognized as a precursor in this field. For two decades, between the 1970's and 1990's, he took numerous aerial photographs for the airline Swissair, and his considerable work contributed to define the image of the airline. This 1971 Swissair poster shows a reef in the Great Barrier Reef off the coast of Queensland in northeast Australia. The Great Barrier Reef is the largest ecosystem on Earth and is even visible from space.

Australia — UTA French Airlines Travel Poster, Circa 1975-1982

Australia — UTA French Airlines Travel Poster, Circa 1975-1982

Located in Spokane, WA

This striking travel poster promoting Australia was issued by UTA (Union de Transports Aériens), the French international airline active under that name from 1963 until its merger into Air France in 1990. The composition presents a highly stylized rendering of Sydney Harbour, with the Harbour Bridge and the unmistakable silhouette of the Sydney Opera House set against a vivid green ground and simplified skyline. The design embraces a minimalist, graphic approach characteristic of later 20th-century airline advertising, favoring bold color fields and reduced forms over photographic realism. The strong contrast and simplified geometry give the image immediate visual impact, while the iconic landmarks firmly anchor the scene in Sydney, Australia’s most internationally recognized city. UTA was known for commissioning clean, modern promotional imagery to position long-haul destinations as both aspirational and accessible. This poster fits squarely within that tradition, likely produced in the 1970s or 1980s, when such reductive graphic styles were widely used in airline marketing. Today, the piece appeals to collectors of airline memorabilia, Australian travel posters...
