Does anyone know anything about this Sabena picture? Is it an old time table cover, or just an advert for something?

Well, what I can understand from the picture it's a poster to advertise for an exposition at Brussels National Airport with free entrance. The dates are kinda blurry for me to read.

That's the poster for the exhibition held in the terminal building at the end of the nineties...

Thanks for the correct info everyone.
I thought it may have been a genuine old picture

Comet,
it is used on this advertising campaign but I am quite sure that this poster is used before back in 1960-1970.

No doubt AFTER 1958, see the background...
But the uniform is 50-ties...strange combination...

Wasn't this terminal constructed to be ready for the opening of the '58 World exhibition ?

Affirmative, and the eight floor left of the tower was 'de Sabena kantien'
