Year: 1961

Format: Certificate

Illustrator: Uncredited (possibly Maurice Laban, unverified)

Client: BOAC

Details: This 1961 BOAC certificate commemorates a passenger breaking the time barrier. It features an exuberant written passage proclaiming that the recipient is granted freedom of the time barrier on behalf of Father Time himself.

The illustration is not signed by the artist but appears to have been created by Maurice Laban (1912–1970) - the character designs are similar to those on the 1966 equator crossing certificate, with the same stipple effects and dotted ornamental line details.
