Wallpaper - Greetings from Nebraska Map - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Nebraska wallpaper captures mid-century graphic Americana through a detailed, screenprint-style pictorial map. Originally published by The Tichnor Brothers in the 1950s, this design combines bold typography, scenic vignettes, and regional landmarks across an illustrated state outline. A vibrant yellow ribbon crowns the composition, surrounded by historical symbols such as the Western Meadowlark and Goldenrod blossom alongside illustrated cattle, cornfields, and agricultural scenes. Printed on made-to-measure, PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, our wall murals bring rich narrative character and vintage charm to your interior walls.

In the room

Because of its broad horizontal orientation and dense visual storytelling, we like this design best on a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full geography has space to unfold. It works exceptionally well in a home study, library, or a teenage room where the illustrated details can be appreciated up close. Placing it behind a low desk or a simple sofa allows the intricate town names, historical trails, and wildlife illustrations to remain visible across the room without being obscured by heavy cabinetry.

Styling it

We recommend pairing this vintage map with furnishings that respect its Americana heritage without competing with the detailed print.

• Anchor the space with warm wood furniture, such as mid-century walnut or natural pine, which naturally complements the graphic line work and aged parchment tones.
• Select simple upholstery in muted denim blue or earthy olive to draw out the subtle landscape shades found in the illustration.
• Keep wall accents and lighting understated, opting for simple matte black metal fixtures or clean table lamps that leave the wallpaper as the primary focal point.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by a warm foundation of sunshine yellow, cream, and sky blue, grounded by earthy greens, rich ochre, and crisp black line art. Around this design, we suggest painting adjacent walls and trim in soft, warm off-white or light sand to keep the room bright and balanced. For accent pieces or built-in shelving, deep navy or warm russet brown will highlight the map's richer tones without overwhelming the space.
