1961 SAS Airlines Poster (Vitus Bering) - Original Vintage Poster

This colorful beauty of a poster was originally intended to be a part of the SAS calendar of 1961 with the theme of "The great discoveries of the world" by the famous Danish artist Otto Nielsen.

The picture displays the ship of Vitus Bering (1681-1741) who was a Danish explorer and officer in the Russian Navy. He is known for his two explorations of the north-eastern coast of the Asian continent from there the western coast on the North American continent. This is why you can see Russian tribesmen with their horses and herds of reindeer on the image. Bering's legacy includes the naming of The Bering Strait and the Bering Sea in his honor.

Since they come as individual posters they are much more beautiful (no waste of paper for the calendar dates) and easier to frame and hang on the wall. The poster is in perfect condition and is in a great thick paper quality which measures 15.9 x 11.6 in (40.5 x 29.5 cm).

Thanks for watching and please let me know if you have any questions.
