The Pompidou Centre Muse National d'Art Moderne has the largest collection of modern & contemporary art in Europe. The Muse Rodin & Muse Picasso exhibit the works of two noted Parisians.

Other popular tourist sites include the Gothic royal chapel of Sainte-Chapelle, also on the le de la Cit; the Eiffel Tower, constructed for the Paris Universal Exposition of 1889; the Grand Palais & Petit Palais, built for the Paris Universal Exposition of 1900; the Arc de Triomphe on the Champs-lyses, & the hill of Montmartre with its artistic history & its Basilica of Sacr-Coeur.

Air France was formed on 7 October 1933 from a merger of Air Orient, Air Union, Compagnie Gnrale Aropostale, Compagnie Internationale de Navigation Arienne (CIDNA), & Socit Gnrale de Transport Arien (SGTA). Because of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear & tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn or stained. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, & edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the vintage charm. When framed these colourful & detailed posters, with vibrant colours can become a centre piece for any room, to remind us of a simpler time. These posters are sent as unframed. They will be delivered in a cardboard tube for protection.
