The History
This is a vintage playing card featuring the iconic Junkers G 31 aircraft, once operated by Guinea Airways Limited. This aircraft was a crucial part of aviation history in the late 1920s and 1930s, flying in and out of Lae, New Guinea. Guinea Airways played a vital role in the region—transporting gold mining equipment, supplies, cargo, passengers, and even cattle across the rugged terrain. The card likely dates back to that era, or it could be a commemorative piece celebrating this groundbreaking chapter in early aviation. With “Guinea Airways Limited Lae New Guinea” proudly printed around its border, this card isn’t just a piece of memorabilia—it’s a window into the pioneering days of flight in the South Pacific.
