Lockheed L 188 Electra Turboprop 12 x 15 Acrylic Sign

The Lockheed L 188 Electra arrived as America's first big turboprop airliner, and it sounded like nothing else on the ramp. This 12 x 15 acrylic sign captures that moment with a travel poster look: four Allison powered nacelles filling the sky overhead, blades in black and yellow, and an Electra loading passengers at the airstairs while the tower watches from across the apron.

The wording carries the optimism of the era, from A New Era in Air Travel to Turboprop Power, A Brighter Tomorrow, closing with People, Places, Possibilities along the bottom. It is late fifties airline confidence in one panel.

Hang it in the hangar, office, den, home bar, or crew room. It makes a strong gift for propliner fans, airline history collectors, turboprop drivers, and anyone who still lines up at the fence when a four blade radialless whistle taxis by.
