Wallpaper - Greetings from El Paso - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from El Paso wallpaper brings a classic mid-century postcard aesthetic straight onto your wall, featuring artwork originally produced by The Tichnor Brothers. Large, blocky letters spelling out "EL PASO" take centre stage, with each character framing its own distinct vignette of city architecture, desert landscapes, mountain views, water scenes, and a cowboy riding a bucking horse. Arched "GREETINGS from" text sits across the top, while "TEXAS" anchors the lower section alongside a bright yellow star and desert cactus motifs set against an open sky blue background. Printed to your exact dimensions, our PVC-free wallpapers are easy to hang and feature a subtle physical paper structure that complements the vintage screenprint look.

In the room

Because of the graphic scale and strong horizontal lettering, we see this design working particularly well as an accent wall in a living room or a dedicated vacation home space. The artwork has a bold illustrative rhythm, so giving it an open, relatively uninterrupted wall lets each letter's detailed scene remain clearly visible. In rooms where you want a playful sense of Americana and vintage travel nostalgia, positioning this behind a lower sofa or low-profile media unit keeps the central typography in full view.

Styling it

The graphic presence of this mural wallpaper naturally draws attention, so we like pairing it with relatively simple furniture shapes that do not compete with the bold letterforms. Mid-century modern wooden pieces, vintage leather seating, or warm wood finishes work naturally with the retro Americana aesthetic. To keep the room balanced, choose solid fabrics for rugs and curtains rather than competing patterns, allowing the graphic illustration on the wall to remain the clear focal point of the space.

Colour combinations

Our design is built on a vibrant palette led by bright sky blue and energetic yellow, with rich accent tones of desert red, earthy greens, and crisp white outlines within the vignettes. When choosing surrounding wall paints or larger interior elements, soft off-white or muted sand tones allow the bold graphic colours to stand out cleanly. If you prefer a richer, more cohesive look, echoing the deep sky blue or dusty desert green on neighbouring woodwork, trim, or soft furnishings pulls the room together effortlessly.
