Very nice indeed.

I would be interested to know where these archeological artifacts are stored? PIA posters from the 1980-90s have got to be some of the best ones around.

PIA used to really advertise its lands back in the day now we get substandard posters with Flight Sim videos. What has the airline come to...

One of the things I liked about these old PIA ads is that original and unmodified photos of PIA aircraft, crew, engineering etc. were especially taken at airports in Pakistan and used in these beautiful ads.

Here's another PIA ad from 'The Heritage' series.

Nice one. I love camels! :thumbs_up:

I totally agree with you about the aircraft photos, up until the early 2000 we used to see alot of photographs of the ins and out of Pakistan's operations appear on the advertisement material. Maybe it became a secuirty issue for PIA that's why they stopped? Post 9/11 was a very different story for Pakistan...

Abbas I noticed on some of the latter photos there seems to be a crease in the paper, were these ads in newspapers or magazines?

^ Yes, all of them are scanned from various magazines, last two are from 1985/86 issues of PIA in-flight magazine 'Humsafar'.

Oh I see. That's cool. I only started collecting early 2000s onwards. I also have the 50th Anniversary one too. That one is really awesome.
