Send your pets & livestock by air : leaflet issued by Imperial Airways ; London ; 1931 : cover

A rather charming leaflet issued by Imperial Airways - "the British Air LIne" - in 1932 and dealing with the transportation of pets and livestock by air. As can be seen Imperial offered a range of services for numerous types of animals and, indeed, fish. They appear to draw the line with 'small bears'.

The leaflet was designed by Imperial's long standing advertising agency Stuarts. The cartoon style animal sketches are unattributed; the front cover shows a British bulldog and a French poodle along with an obviously "British" lion cub.
