Wallpaper - Greetings from Oklahoma - Screenprint Postcard

Bring classic mid-century Americana into your interior with our Greetings from Oklahoma wallpaper, adapted from a vintage 1940s postcard print by The Tichnor Brothers. The design features bold, dimensional lettering framed in vibrant red, with each letter containing detailed historic scenes of state landmarks, architecture, and heritage. A soft green sky, sunshine yellow accents, and an illustration of the Oklahoma State Capitol and mistletoe state flower complete this nostalgic graphic composition. Produced as custom made-to-measure, PVC-free wall murals, our wallpapers feature a subtle paper structure that adds character to any feature wall.

In the room

Because of its horizontal postcard layout and bold graphic typography, we recommend placing this design on a clear, uninterrupted wall where the full lettering and surrounding illustrations can be appreciated without tall furniture obscuring the detail. It works exceptionally well in an entryway, a hallway staircase, a home study, or a relaxed living space where you want to introduce narrative charm and retro character.

In a holiday cottage or vacation home, this wall mural serves as an engaging conversational piece. The balanced composition, featuring the sweeping title text above the neoclassical State Capitol building, anchors a room effectively when positioned behind a low sofa, a credenza, or along an open dining wall.

Styling it

To let the expressive typography and vibrant vintage palette remain the focal point, pair this wallpaper with understated, timeless furnishings. We like combining it with warm mid-century timber furniture, such as teak or dark oak sideboards with clean lines, which naturally echo the 1940s design heritage.

Keep surrounding decorative elements relatively graphic and structured rather than fussy. Matte black or aged bronze light fixtures provide a crisp modern contrast against the illustrated details, while simple upholstery in solid neutrals ensures the room remains uncluttered and easy to live with.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by a distinct retro palette: warm sunshine yellow, rich brick red lettering borders, soft sage and mint green tones in the sky and foliage, alongside creamy architectural stonework.

When choosing paint for adjoining walls and woodwork, consider pulling out the creamy off-white or soft linen tones from the postcard border for a calm, cohesive backdrop. If you prefer deeper contrast, a warm olive green or muted navy on adjacent trim will highlight the vibrant red outlines and historic illustrations within the mural wallpapers.
