Description
This vintage postcard showcases a KLM Royal Dutch Airlines DC-8 jet at Houston’s jet-age airport, a stunning image in muted blues and beiges. The back features a 1960s Houston International Airport postmark and a message from Artin describing a flight with a lobster dinner. This Easter Seals benefit postcard is a nostalgic reminder of air travel from the 1960s.

We laid over last night in Atlanta.
Ate on the plane (a lobster).
Then flew out this morning on a jet and are going to see Antonions together all the way. Love, ARTIN
