By the late 1950s, popular recording artists were infusing their records with the appeal of chic international air-travel on modern airliners. Frank Sinatra’s Come Fly with Me, released in 1958, featured cover art by Marvin Schwartz of a sleek TWA (Trans World Airlines) Lockheed 1649 Starliner on the runway. In the title song, the singer encouraged listeners to fly with him to Bombay, Peru, Acapulco Bay, and a host of other distant, exotic lands. See this record on display in "Queen of the Skies: The Legacy of the Lockheed Constellation". This exhibition is on display, pre-security, in the Aviation Museum and Library. The Aviation Museum and Library is located in the International Terminal and open daily from 10am to 4:30pm. http://bit.ly/TWASkyliner #‎TWASkyliner Come Fly with Me, Frank Sinatra with Billy May and his orchestra TWA (Trans World Airline), Frank Sinatra, phonograph record 1958 SFO Museum Collection 2009.161.010 This image was posted on May 05, 2016.
