Wallpaper - Greetings from Fort Myers - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Fort Myers wallpaper captures the sunny, nostalgic appeal of a classic mid-century souvenir postcard by The Tichnor Brothers. Large, graphic block letters spell out the Florida city, with each letterform acting as a window into vibrant vignettes of coastal life, palm trees, sandy shores, and bathers under the sun. A leaping sport fish arches across the top, lending a dynamic sense of movement to the composition. Printed with a vintage screenprint aesthetic, rich shades of ocean blue, palm green, warm sand, and vivid accent tones create an inviting retro look. Custom made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it brings graphic energy and historic Americana charm to any interior.

In the room

Because of the strong horizontal format and bold typography, this design works best as an accent wall where the full graphic composition can be seen at a glance. In a living room or vacation home, we like placing it on an open wall behind a low sofa, credenza, or console table so the detailed letter vignettes remain in view. The vibrant seaside theme also brings a playful, laid-back atmosphere to a sunroom, entryway, or guest bedroom. For rooms with generous daylight, the bright coastal greens and ocean blues feel fresh and vivid, while warmer artificial lighting in the evening emphasizes the nostalgic 1940s color palette.

Styling it

When decorating around this design, we suggest balancing the bold lettering and dense imagery with simple, relaxed furnishings. Casual mid-century silhouettes, rattan, and light to mid-toned woods complement the retro Americana look without competing for attention.

To keep the space grounded, keep surrounding patterns minimal. Solid upholstery in crisp off-white, sun-bleached canvas, or light denim lets the mural wallpapers serve as the central visual feature, while matte black or brushed brass hardware adds subtle, refined contrast.

Color combinations

The artwork features a sunny palette centered around deep aqua, bright sky blue, tropical palm greens, and warm sand, energized by cheerful red, yellow, and coral accents inside the lettering.

To create a cohesive scheme, we recommend pairing this wallpaper with soft off-white, light cream, or pale sandy beige on adjacent walls and trim. If you want to draw out the deeper tones, furniture or accents in navy blue, muted olive green, or terracotta tie in naturally with the vintage print colors.
