Weekend Poster Feast 7

Weekend Poster Feast 7. Better late than never! This time we enjoy the cool, elegant, and sexy lines of an Art Deco fuselage in a sheet advertising the 1937 British thriller Non-Stop New York, which deals with the intrigue and hijinks in an 18 hour transatlantic flight. Apparently the plane in the movie doesn't resemble the one shown on this poster, but is instead the height of opulance and luxury, complete with two levels, sleeping berths, a dining room, and even an outside balcony in order to take in the sights. Quite unlike the comfort we take for granted in air travel today! The film stars the pretty and livacious Anna Lee, who later was featured in the soap opera General Hospital.
