A vintage propaganda poster from 1965 by Hughes Aircraft Company, warning against the dangers of exposing classified information with a striking minimalist design. A bold statement piece for any space.

This striking vintage poster from the Hughes Aircraft Company, dating back to 1965, serves as a stark reminder of the importance of security. The minimalist design features a stylised black skirt suspended by two thin lines against a vibrant orange background. The text, 'Don't Overexpose Classified Information,' is a clever visual metaphor, equating the potential exposure of sensitive data with the indiscretion of a raised hemline. The poster's message is clear: security is paramount. The Hughes Aircraft Company's logo and slogan, 'Security is My Business, Your Business, Good Business, Plant Security,' are subtly placed in the lower right corner, reinforcing the company's commitment to safeguarding information. This piece is a fascinating artefact of Cold War-era corporate culture, reflecting the anxieties and priorities of the time. As a fine art print, this poster adds a touch of retro cool to any space, sparking conversation and serving as a unique statement piece. Its bold colours and simple design make it a versatile addition to both modern and vintage-inspired interiors. A perfect blend of art and history, this print is sure to captivate and intrigue.

Hughes Aircraft Company

The Hughes Aircraft Company, while not an artist in the traditional sense, indelibly shaped the visual landscape of the 20th century through its pioneering work in aerospace and technology. Founded by the enigmatic Howard Hughes in 1932, the company's innovations in aircraft design, satellite technology, and radar systems produced objects of immense functional beauty. These creations, from the sleek lines of the Hughes H-1 Racer to the intricate circuitry of early satellites, possess an aesthetic quality born from their purpose and the sheer ingenuity of their engineering. Hughes's contributions extended beyond mere functionality. The company's work inadvertently influenced popular culture, informing the visual language of science fiction and inspiring a generation with its vision of the future. The iconic 'Spruce Goose,' though only flown once, captured the public imagination and became a symbol of American ambition and technological prowess. Hughes's designs, driven by a relentless pursuit of innovation, inadvertently created a unique form of industrial art. Today, the legacy of Hughes Aircraft lives on in the aerospace industry and beyond. While the company itself no longer exists in its original form, its impact on design and technology remains profound. Owning a print related to Hughes Aircraft is a celebration of human ingenuity and a reminder that even the most functional objects can possess a captivating beauty.
