1946. Boeing Stratocruiser first concept had a gaming lounge.

 


Gracious modern living reaches a climax in Boeing's great new Stratocruisers. Never before have passengers enjoyed such complete comfort in the air—or such distance-devouring speed. In the time it takes to play a rubber of bridge, whole states flash below! The entire interior of the two-deck Stratocruiscr is superbly air and altitude conditioned. Fresh air circulates under constant temperature control, providing comfortable, normal atmospheric pressure even at 25,000 feet; complete comfort during climb and descent. Boeing introduced the first pressurized airliner—the Stratolincr—in 193$. During the war the B-29 Superfortress was the only military aircraft similarly conditioned for crew comfort and well-being. From this background Boeing will soon offer—in the Stratocruiser—altitude-conditioned air-travel comfort and pleasure unparalleled by any other transport.
