Wallpaper - Greetings from Columbus - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Columbus wallpaper brings classic mid-century travel art directly to your wall. Based on vintage screenprint postcard graphics by The Tichnor Brothers, the design centres on large, dimensional lettering where each character frames iconic architecture and street scenes from Columbus, Indiana. Set against an energetic sunshine yellow backdrop with graphic blue banding and cursive script, this wall mural delivers an authentic retro character. Like all our wall murals, it is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture.

In the room

Because the bold typography and bright yellow ground command immediate attention, we like this design best on a prominent feature wall where the complete lettering can be viewed without heavy disruption. In an entryway or hallway, it sets an inviting, nostalgic tone the moment you step through the door. In a living room, it works wonderfully as an accent behind a low sofa, giving the architectural imagery inside the letters room to be explored up close while letting the sunny background energise the entire space.

Styling it

To let the graphic artwork stand out, we suggest keeping surrounding furniture clean-lined and relatively grounded. Mid-century silhouettes in warm wood or simple painted finishes complement the 1950s screenprint aesthetic naturally without competing with the busy illustration. We would avoid heavily patterned upholstery or elaborate decorative pieces directly against the wall, choosing instead solid textiles that let the typography remain the clear focal point of the room.

Colour combinations

The design is defined by its vibrant sunshine yellow background, accented with cool sky blue shadow details, crisp white lettering outlines, and warm brick-red architectural tones within the imagery. To create a cohesive setting, pair this mural wallpaper with crisp off-white or soft warm cream on adjacent walls and woodwork. If you prefer deeper contrast, accents in muted navy blue or warm terracotta will draw out the secondary shades from the postcard lettering.
