Delta Airline of the South Porcelain Enamel Sign (12in)

Delta—The Airline of the South

Before it became one of the largest airlines in the world, Delta Air Lines was known as "The Airline of the South," serving passengers with Southern hospitality, reliable service, and pioneering aviation advancements. Founded in 1924 as a crop-dusting company, Delta quickly grew into a major airline, connecting cities across the country with a commitment to safety and comfort. This vintage-style 12” porcelain sign celebrates Delta’s early years, featuring bold branding, classic typography, and nostalgic aviation-inspired design. A must-have for collectors of vintage airline memorabilia, aviation history, and classic travel advertising.

Remember when things were built to last? When craftsmanship mattered?

We do too. That’s why we don’t cut corners. This Delta Airline of the South 12” Porcelain Sign is built exactly like the originals—real kiln-fired porcelain enamel, layered onto ¼-inch heavy-gauge steel for a finish that lasts a lifetime.
