About the Item
Original vintage cruise travel advertising poster - Greece Crete Palace of Cnossos on the Greek Line T.S.S. Olympia - featuring a colourful illustration of the ancient Minoan Palace of Knossos in Heraklion on the Mediterranean Sea island of Crete, depicting red columns and a bird mural (most likely the partridge fresco) with decorative pots in this Bronze Age archaeological site, a view of trees and hills in the distance with the title above and cruise ship text on the side. Founded in 1939 the Greek Line (formally the General Steam Navigation Company of Greece), operated transatlantic and tourist passenger services until it was declared bankrupt in 1975. Built by Alexander Stephen & Sons in 1953 for the Greek Line, the ocean liner Olympia became one of the longest serving passenger ships in history (she changed hands and was renamed numerous times after 1975 before being scrapped in 2009). Printed in Greece by The Phoenix, Athens. Good condition, restored tears, creasing, staining, creasing, backed on linen.
