Deco Travel Ads Blue Giftwrap
Among the myriad manifestations of the Art Deco era, the expansive travel
imagery of the period communicated a global vision of the style to consumers
everywhere. Elegant scenes of wealthy world travelers surrounded by Art Deco
accoutrements described a lifestyle in which one really could never be “too
thin or too rich.” And because virtually everything associated with
Art Deco could be mass-produced, those who could only dream of a cruise to
exotic places were able to achieve a vicarious sense of belonging to the
leisure set in the form of a jaunty bakelite bangle or faux-sterling cigarette
case.
