    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Fly Now: The National Air and Space Museum Poster Collection]]></dcterms:description>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Throughout their history, posters have been a significant means of mass communication, often with striking visual effect. Wendy Wick Reaves, the Smithsonian Portrait Gallery Curator of Prints and Drawings, comments that &quot;sometimes a pictorial poster is a decorative masterpiece-something I can&#039;t walk by without a jolt of aesthetic pleasure.

The collection represents an intense interest in flight, both public and private, during a significant period of its technological and social development.]]></dcterms:description>
