The Grand Tour- NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory – Caltech

The Grand Tour – NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Caltech

Visions of the Future series – a collection of space travel posters of colourful, exotic and imaginative  space ‘destinations’. Each space travel poster imagines future explorers living and working in places across the solar system. 

The Grand Tour poster is a clever take on an old 18th century custom by the upper classes of taking a trip around Europe, usually for months at a time. It is this approach the poster is suggesting could be possible in the future. The poster features “The Big Four” must sees, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune and shows rockets travelling around them.

Our posters are carefully and professionally created from vintage originals. Whilst great care is taken in the production of these posters, we also try to maintain a vintage feel, so there may be small imperfections, fold marks, scuffs, tears or marks that were part of the original poster master. If these do appear they should be visible on the larger views of the item on this listing. The originals of many of the posters we offer can cost many thousands of pounds, so whilst these posters look great, especially framed and mounted on a wall, they are intended as a fun, affordable reproductions and not intended fine art prints.

The 50x70cm version has been specially produced to be used in conjunction with Ikea’s 50x70cm Ribba picture frame which currently retails for around £12. So you can bag a print and frame for a great price.
