Levitt-him Jan Levitt 1907-1991, Him Jerzy 1900-1982 American Overseas Airlines. Circa 1950 24 x 37.75 inches. W.R. Royle & Son, London. Condition B: identification stamp in upper left corner; discoloration and minor abrasions in margins and image. Levitt and Him were both born in Poland and met as young graphic designers. In 1933, they founded the Levitt-Him Studio and then immigrated to England in 1937 Deeply inspired by Surrealist painting, their work wasalways very conceptual, often drawing a connection between the word and the image. In this poster, we see an example of Levitt-Him's technique, with the advertised shrinking travel time being symbolized by the image. An extremely original approach. ref.
