A popular form of ephemera collected today is pieces of advertising, souvenirs, and other paper items falling into a theme of aviation or specific airline companies. This wonderful piece of airline history was a souvenir give away from NAC or the National Airways Corporation. NAC was formed in 1947 and was based in Aukland, New Zealand. Pictured is a souvenir portfolio to hold your travel papers in. I believe this particular piece is from around 1952 or 1953 as one of the pieces included in the portfolio advertises a flight to the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth which took place in June of 1953.
