1950s TWA Airlines Quickie Vacation Matchcover

1950s TWA Airlines Quickie Vacation Matchcover

(air236) This Royal Flash matchcover is from Trans World Airlines offering their "Quickie Vacation." Interesting graphics on the back as the models appear to be crash dummies. The inside says: Relax! Where the Sun spends the Winter!

[From the AMCC Web Site: Royal Flash -- A Universal Match Corp. trademark whose match books contained 40 match sticks. These match books were twice the width of the regular 20-stick match books. They were introduced into the market in 1934.]

This matchcover is NEAR MINT & UNSTRUCK with the matches removed. There is a minor ding on one edge. You are viewing both sides and a detail of the ONE matchcover in this sale. Difficult to date exactly, but probably from the late 1950s or 1960s.
