Scarves, The Travel Scarf

In the 1950s, prosperity soared and was accompanied by the development of rapid air travel which was able to take people from all social classes to foreign places.
The headscarf was a popular fashion accessory in the 1940s and a vital part of a woman's travel wardrobe. It was seen as the perfect medium for advertising in the travel and holiday industry.
The souvenir scarf was a memento of the holiday destination, but also the mode of transport, such as an airline scarf.
