Wallpaper - Greetings from Billings - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Billings wallpaper captures the classic mid-century screenprint postcard aesthetic, originally designed by The Tichnor Brothers. Across bold block lettering spelling out Billings, individual vignettes reveal regional scenes including historic red brick architecture, a rider on horseback, and a distinctive yellow and white lighthouse. Set against a warm gradient background transitioning through blue, orange, and sunshine yellow, this graphic design brings genuine 1940s Americana charm into the home. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, our wallpapers are easy to hang and make an unforgettable statement on any feature wall.

In the room

Because of the bold, central typography and panoramic postcard format, this design works best on a wide, relatively uninterrupted feature wall. In a living room, hallway, or home office, it creates an instant focal point that sets a warm, nostalgic tone. We also see this working exceptionally well in a holiday home or a dedicated games room where graphic, heritage-inspired wall murals can take centre stage. Placing it behind a low-profile sofa, a desk, or a low sideboard allows the full lettering and scenic details inside each character to remain clearly visible.

Styling it

The distinct retro character and vibrant 1940s screenprint palette give this design a strong graphic presence. When styling around it, we suggest balancing the energetic print with grounded, period-sympathetic furnishings:

• Pair with mid-century or retro furniture in warm, mid-tone woods such as teak or warm birch to echo the design's historic roots.
• Select upholstery and painted elements that draw directly from the print's deeper shades, such as brick red or muted navy, rather than introducing competing high-contrast patterns.
• Keep surrounding wall decorations minimal and let the bold composition of our mural wallpapers act as the primary visual feature in the space.

Colour combinations

The design is built around a vibrant base of sunshine yellow, rich orange, sky blue, and warm brick red. When planning adjacent walls, woodwork, or built-in joinery, we recommend working with soft, warm off-whites or muted cream tones that provide a clean border without clashing with the colourful gradient. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel, pulling out a soft terracotta or a desaturated navy for surrounding trims or nearby accent furniture complements the screenprint tones naturally.
