Description: c.1932 Matson Line England In 28 Days From Australia New Zealand Poster Brindle Date: c.1932Artist: Brindle, Ewart MelbourneSize (in): 40” x 25”Size (cm): 101.6 x 63.5Condition: B-/C+Linen backed: YesThis vintage original and rare poster was created by the prolific Australian-American illustrator Melbourne Brindle for the Matson Line shipping company in the early 1930s. This poster advertises the Matson Line passenger service from Australia and New Zealand across the Pacific via America to England in 28 days. The poster isn’t dated but mentions the SS Mariposa and SS Monterey ocean liners which were part of the Matson Line "White Fleet" with both ships taking maiden voyages in early 1932 so thus a c.1932 date seems about right.Brindle was born in Melbourne, Australia in 1904 and immigrated to the United States as a teenager. Brindle’s long and successful career as an illustrator included creating covers for the Saturday Evening Post magazine and working for major clients like Douglas Aircraft, United Airlines and automakers Ford, General Motors and Chrysler. This poster dated to the early 1930s is from early in Bridle’s career and rarely seen as we trace none at auction. This vintage original poster has been professionally linen backed with some expert touch up and restoration as needed including replacement to some small areas of paper loss in the image area. The poster displays nicely. Please contact us for more information as needed and please see our other listings for another Melbourne Brindle Matson Lines companion poster.
