    This TWA poster by artist David Klein won the American Society of Travel Agents (ASTA) travel poster contest in 1961. It depicts the Vatican and one of its venerable Swiss guards in full regalia, plus the Roman Coliseum. Typical of TWA posters, text is kept to a minimum and an airplane flies overhead.
