Vintage Irish ads sale: From Aer Lingus-flying turkeys to Santa s Tayto

  A quirky poster promoting air transport for turkeys being sent as presents to Britain is among advertising ephemera in a two-day sale next month. The “Send your gift turkey by air” poster is included in Sheppard’s sale on Thursday and Friday, June 10th and 11th. The Vintage Advertising and Printed Ephemera sale comprises a wide range of historical Irish advertising material from a single collector over a 40-year period. Lot 135 (€300-€500), an ad for Aer Lingus, dates from 1962 when the annual Christmas airlift of Irish turkeys to Britain was a week-long affair, and a special “turkey depot” operated from Cathal Brugha Street to facilitate their movement.
