The 70’s decade was a prime period for brand endorsed coin and card collections. Newspapers, petrol brands and leading food brands cashed in on the craze of loyalty collectibles.
This large format 1974 example from Cadbury's consists of an airline brand collection in bespoke full colour card folder 45 x 35cms. The folder cost 50p and Children/consumers exchanged 15 chocolate/sweet wrappers for one of three giveaway sets of airline brand roundels.
Featuring all the big guns of aviation and some fab shots of the iconic Boeing 747 ‘Jumbo Jet’ and Concorde the folder opens out to approx 8 feet and includes an introduction by WW2 fighter ace Douglas Bader.
Essentially this is a collectors set of high quality resin roundels/badges of 20 famous airlines PanAm, TWA, BA etc. showing the signature tail fin detail.
The folder includes a history of aviation and various facts and insight relating to air travel.
This is a vintage item with rubbing to outside edges, an interesting and well thought designed aviation collectible.
