VINTAGE MARS POSTER - Space Travel Teach on Mars Vintage Recruitment Poster WW2 Style Nasa Print Scifi Travel Poster, Space Poster: This retro styled poster from NASA is a great addition for any wanna-be astronaut!



EXCERPT FROM NASA:

The old WPA posters did a really great job delivering a feeling about a far-off destination. They were created at a time when color photography was not very advanced, in order to capture the beauty of the national parks from a human perspective.

The point was to share a sense of things on the edge of possibility that are closely tied to the work our people are doing today. The JPL director has called our people "architects of the future."

As for the style, we gravitated to the style of the old posters the WPA created for the war effort. There's a nostalgia for that era that just feels good.


These prints are made in small runs and aren't sold in any retail store. Perfect vintage decor for a modern living room or office that needs a unique piece of artwork to hang on the wall. Goes great as part of a set - try mixing and matching different sized prints.

[About Me]

The thing I enjoy about running my Etsy shop is seeing the old posters I found, most of them faded, wrinkled, and torn, restored to their original state. I use my background in graphic design to carefully retouch and recolor the posters, many of which have set abandoned for 50+ years.

As a photographer, I've worked for shoe and makeup companies, photographed for magazines, and created album artwork for many successful recording artists.

Photography was a passion of mine that introduced me to graphic design, and I've continued to explore my interest by photographing everything from my travels and sharing pieces of those experiences with the world.
