Vintage travel posters are one of our favourite subjects, we’ve featured quite a few designers who worked in the industry.
For someone so prolific, talented and who worked for one of the biggest corporations in the world, we can’t find out much about Aaron Fine. All we’ve found out is that he was friends with Andy Warhol and that he died of cancer.
Other than Pan Am posters we have only seen evidence of him authoring and illustrating a single children’s book, Peter Plants a Pocketful in 1955. He illustrated The Hidden House by Margaret Wise Brown.
Vintage original examples come up for sale occasionally on eBay or you can find prints much more easily on Etsy. In addition, there’s a range of prints available from Classic Vintage Posters.
