Wallpaper - Greetings from Harwichport - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Harwichport wallpaper captures the charm of classic mid-century American travel souvenirs. Designed by The Tichnor Brothers in the 1940s screenprint postcard style, large graphic block letters spell out "Greetings From Harwichport, Cape Cod, Mass.", with each character framed around seaside vignettes of sailboats, beaches, and waterfront cottages. Soft pastel tones of sky blue, warm yellow, and gentle pink create an earthy, nostalgic composition with a distinct vintage character. Like all our wallpapers, this design is made to measure to your wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture.

In the room

Because the design functions as a large-scale graphic artwork, we like giving this mural wallpaper an uninterrupted wall where the full typography and letter vignettes remain visible. In a living room or a dedicated dining space in a vacation home or coastal cottage, it works especially well as a focal point behind low-backed seating or a dining table. The horizontal postcard format naturally anchors wider walls, while the gentle balance of pastel shades keeps the overall composition light rather than heavy.

Styling it

To let the illustrative character of the design take center stage, we suggest keeping nearby furnishings relatively understated. Mid-century silhouettes, clean-lined timber pieces in warm honey or natural tones, and simple painted furniture in muted off-white or soft navy pair naturally with the 1940s Americana feel. For surrounding textiles, lightweight natural weaves and plain upholstery prevent competing patterns from cluttering the visual rhythm of the postcard layout.

Color combinations

The wallpaper centers on a nostalgic palette of soft blues, sun-washed yellows, and muted pinks, grounded by gentle earthy undertones. On adjacent walls, warm off-white, light coastal blue, or soft sand tones create a cohesive backdrop that lets the mural stand out comfortably. If you want a deeper accent on surrounding trim, wainscoting, or cabinetry, a muted slate blue or deep navy echoes the maritime lettering nicely.
