Advertising Mary Wells Lawrence, then with Braniff’s new agency Jack Tinker and Partners, known as Tinkers Thinkers, and her group of new-era advertisers who guided the transformation of Braniff, which became known simply as Braniff International in April 1965. This marked the beginning of the EOTPP era and with that Braniff became the ultimate trendsetter that other airline's attempted to emulate from both a visual and financial standpoint.

The focal point of the new look was the painting of all Braniff jet-powered aircraft (Jet-Powered Electra Jets were not painted in the new look until late 1966) in eight unique Solid Colors Schemes designed by noted New Mexico Architect and Herman Miller Designer Alexander "Sandro" Hayden Girard and further enhanced by Braniff's Maintenance and Engineering Department and advertising executive Mary Wells. Ms. Wells was Vice President of Braniff's new advertising think tank firm, which spearheaded the new Braniff campaign along with John Anderson, Charlie Moss, Richard Rich and Stewart Greene. Initially, seven colors were selected for application to Braniff's aircraft including Periwinkle Blue or Lavender, Beige, Orange, Sky Blue, Turquoise, Lemon Yellow, Dark Blue, and Ochre. However, Periwinkle Blue was replaced by Dark Blue in September 1965.

Throughout the 60th year, Braniff will present several exciting events and historical postings to its social media outlets. This includes a review of the Airline’s internal corporate documents and executive meeting minutes that specifically dealt with EOTPP, also known internally as the New Look. A new public contact series of traveling shows dubbed The EOTPP 60th Anniversary Show will bring to life the exciting Braniff time with a full parade of uniforms fashion show.
