National Tourist and Travel Agency

Description:
Side 2: Primarily images. Seal for the National Tourist and Travel Agency (NTTA) in the middle of the poster in black. Seal consists of drawings of a stele at Axum, the Church of St. George in Lalibela, Fasilides Castle, and the Lion of Judah statue in Addis Ababa. Above the black seal is the logo for NTTA in brown. Another logo is under the seal for an unidentified company and consists of a filled-in outline of Ethiopia, over which a running white horse is superimposed. Underneath the horse is the word, "Wollo." Black and white photos are placed around the seal and logos and consist of a stele at Axum, Church of St. George at Lalibela, the Blue Nile Falls, two tour buses which seem to be associated with the Wollo logo, a pile of fish, workers by what appears to be piles of salt, some boats, and Fasilides Castle.
