Come away with me: Vintage Travel Posters
Everyone loves going on vacation. Being out of the office, enjoying new sites, eating yummy foods and of course the shopping!
During every trip I take I’m always on the look out for a cool trinket to bring home with me and remember the trip. Sometimes it’s an elephant to add to my collection or a vintage candlestick holder from a flea market in Florence.
Seeing this image from Design Sponge I was reminded of another way to remember your favorite locales….vintage travel posters!
Boston Public Library has a flickr set full of vintage travel posters that you are allowed to save onto your computer so print away!
Here are some favorites:
We went to Italy a couple of years ago so I think this would be a good one to add to my collection:
European Vacation:
Of course I love the elephant in this one:
I also found a site with free vintage travel posters from America.
Loving the colors in Miami:
Home Sweet Home: New York
What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas:
Chi-town:
I love how many different prints are available and at pennies!
I know one person that will be able to fill a gallery wall with them….Summer Lee! Congrats on winning the 3M give-away!

These are great! I have a desk calendar from Anthro of vintage travel posters. xx
Love these!! Can you buy them??
That is a great idea! I always try to find something on my trips, too!
Oh I love these!!
Great idea! Now I just need to travel.
These ons are so much fun, I 've seen some great ones from time to time at Cost Plus...I love all the vintage travel posters like this!
Thanks so much for linking to my vintage travel posters page. I hope your visitors enjoy the posters!
These are great! I would like to find an Italy one also since that is where we went for our honeymoon.
Seriously, have I ever told you you post the best links? So getting some of these for my new apartment!
Fantastic! I'm a Boston gal and had no idea the BPL offered these posters. I've bookmarked the link and am thinking about ways to use them!
I love vintage travel posters! The only problem is, I can never decide which one to get. So excited these are free which makes my indecision a little more acceptable!
That Las Vegas one is so splendid! It reminds me of the Pixar short film they played right before Toy Story 3 (if you've seen it yet).
