Melbourne's 1940 Travel Poster Tribute Suburban Icon

This print sets you at the corner of Collins and Swanston Streets around 1940, with the Town Hall clock tower on one side and the Art Deco Manchester Unity Building on the other.

It pays tribute to Percy Trompf, whose travel posters inspired a generation of Australians to explore their own country. Look for the midnight blue 1938 Dodge in the foreground, a personal nod from the artist to her father's much-loved wedding car.

A warm, nostalgic piece celebrating Marvellous Melbourne at its most elegant.

Choose from A4, A3, A2 or A1 to suit your space. This Melbourne 1940 Travel Poster print from the Historic Prints Suburban Icons collection makes a meaningful gift and a lovely piece of Melbourne wall art.
