EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures a fascinating glimpse into the past at Birmingham Airport. Standing tall and proud, a signpost guides visitors to the renowned British Industries Fair, held in May 1949. This unique signpost not only displays the direction but also provides distances for various destinations that travelers can reach by air. Atop the mast, compass points serve as a reminder of the importance of navigation in this era of expanding air travel. Just below them, proudly displayed is "Birmingham Airport" symbolizing its role as a gateway to new horizons. As aviation technology advanced and new routes were established, additional signs would be added to accommodate these exciting developments. The opening day of the fair marked an occasion for both locals and international guests to witness groundbreaking innovations across industries. This image showcases not only transportation but also reflects the fashion trends prevalent during that time period. Women with their suitcases are seen bustling around, adding an element of charm and nostalgia to this snapshot from history. With references ranging from Amsterdam to New York and Rome to Stockholm, this signpost epitomizes how airports served as vital connectors between nations in an ever-shrinking world. It stands as a testament to human curiosity and our unyielding desire for exploration.
