Vintage Ireland Travel Posters for St. Patrick's Day!


I love vintage travel posters. They're so graphic and bold and generally beautifully designed. Most often there's nothing subtle about them. I like that.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!

  1. I love vintage travel posters, too. These are great, though I don't for a minute believe that beach scene. Where are the rocks? Where are the cable knit sweaters? That's what I call pure blarney.

  2. Blarney is right!

    Well, she IS wearing socks and shoes. ;) I love the colors though. I think these were silk screen posters which is a process I love.

  3. Yvette, you are classic! Now, even intravel posters.

    Although I am not a van of these, you found some lovely ones. The pastels are just right.

    And from my Irish side of the family, Happy St. Patrick's Day to all.

  6. I meant to say I'm not normally a fan of travel posters, but I do like these. In fact, I am imaging a few of them on my front door facing outside, so I could be greeted by the Emerald Isle as I return home.

    Can these be purchased anyway? Would look great in my hallway (the building's)

  7. Kathy: You should search online to see where you can buy copies. Not sure if you can find exactly these, but you might. Anything's possible online. :)
