EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed colour lithograph captures the bustling Alexandria Harbour in the early 20th century, showcasing the excitement and innovation of Empire Air Routes. The image is part of a set of cigarette cards issued by Lambert & Butler in 1936, highlighting the advancements in aviation during that time.
The aircraft depicted in the print symbolize progress and exploration, as they soar through the sky above the historic port city. The colours are rich and vivid, bringing to life the hustle and bustle of this important transportation hub.
As we gaze upon this piece of art, we are transported back to a time when air travel was still a novelty and held an air of mystery and wonder. The intricate details in the illustration invite us to imagine what it must have been like to witness these planes taking off from Alexandria Harbour on their journeys across continents.
This print serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of technology and transportation, while also celebrating the beauty and nostalgia of early 20th-century aviation. It is a testament to human ingenuity and our endless desire to explore new horizons.
