Wallpaper - Greetings from Alaska - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Alaska - Screenprint Postcard wallpaper brings the graphic character of mid-century souvenir art to the wall. Created by The Tichnor Brothers, this vintage-inspired map design renders the Alaskan landmass in a bold sunshine yellow against crisp blue water areas. Key locations such as Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau, and Nome are clearly marked alongside connecting travel routes and surrounding waterways like the Bering Sea and Gulf of Alaska. With its nostalgic greeting text and stylized cartographic details, our made-to-measure mural wallpapers are produced on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure that brings warmth and clarity to any interior.

In the room

We see this design working exceptionally well in a dedicated home office, a quiet library, or a study where its cartographic details invite closer reading. Because the design functions as a complete illustrated map, we suggest placing it on a primary feature wall with minimal visual interruptions. In a study, setting it along the wall behind a writing desk or reading armchair allows the larger landmass and typography to remain unobstructed. For a home library, positioning the wallpaper across a central open wall section balances beautifully with surrounding built-in shelving, creating a space grounded in vintage travel heritage.

Styling it

To complement the graphic, retro aesthetic of this map, we would keep surrounding furnishings structured and purposeful. Clean-lined mid-century desks or shelving in warm wood tones, such as teak or medium oak, echo the sunny warmth of the yellow landmass without competing with the illustration.

For surrounding accents, matte black metal desk lamps, dark iron hardware, or vintage brass details reinforce the mid-century print character. We recommend keeping nearby textiles simple and textural, choosing unpatterned wool or woven canvas in neutral oatmeal or deep navy to let the detailed cartography remain the primary focal point of the room.

Color combinations

The visual palette of our wallpaper is anchored by a vibrant sunshine yellow paired with clear ocean blue, crisp white typography, and dark outline work.

When choosing colors for adjoining walls, trim, or major furniture, we suggest working with creamy off-whites or soft parchment tones to continue the light, print-paper feel throughout the room. If you prefer deeper contrast, a rich navy blue pulled from the surrounding waterways provides a grounded frame on adjacent walls or built-in cabinetry. For a balanced, warm accent, muted mustard or ochre textiles will naturally pick up the golden tones of the map.
