“Bangkok” — Qantas Airways
Vintage Travel Poster by Harry Rogers (c.1950)

A blaze of colour, movement, and modernity, this striking Qantas poster announces the airline’s Bangkok service at the height of the jet-age imagination. Set against a vivid orange field, a stylised classical Thai dancer becomes an emblem of elegance, culture, and far-flung adventure—an invitation to discover Bangkok as the gateway to Southeast Asia. It is confident, exotic, and unmistakably mid-century.

Bold. Expressive. Utterly iconic.
