Discover the spirit of Oceania with our vibrant collection of 12 vintage luggage labels from Australia, Tasmania and New Zealand. This Portable Document Format (PDF) collage is a curated selection of the extraordinary travel-themed artwork that defined the golden age of travel, a time when the labels attached to one’s luggage were as revealing as the destinations they visited.
Each vintage travel label tells a story. The Australia Hotel of Sydney, with its regal red and blue design, speaks to the sophistication of Australia’s oldest city. The Menzies’ Hotel label, with the crown above the name, showcases the historic elegance of Melbourne. From the land down under, these labels represented the pinnacle of hospitality, beckoning travellers to the comfort and luxury that awaited them.
Flying the skies, the iconic Qantas Empire Airways labels, featuring the iconic kangaroo and the globe-spanning route from Sydney to London, symbolise the adventurous spirit of Australian air travel. These vintage travel labels capture the grandeur of a time when flying was a novelty, reserved for those few who could afford the luxury.
The grandeur of New Zealand is beautifully captured in the Hermitage Lodge at Mt Cook and Southern Scenic Air Services labels, which invite you to explore the natural majesty of the Land of the Long White Cloud. The Grand Hotel in Dunedin’s label nods to the city’s Scottish heritage, while the Tasman Empire Airways Limited’s pictorial sticker represents the era’s iconic seaplane trips across the Tasman Sea.
On the shores of Caroline Bay, the Hydro Grand Hotel’s label echoes the architectural elegance of early 20th century Timaru. The Brisbane Hotel in Launceston, Tasmania, boasts a royal warrant, implying service fit for royalty. Meanwhile, the Grand Hotel Wellington’s retro travel label depicts a sun-kissed traveller, capturing the welcoming and warm spirit of New Zealand’s capital.
These vintage labels are relics of a time when travel was an art and every journey an odyssey. They serve not only as nostalgic reminders, but also as artefacts that once graced the suitcases of those who travelled in style, showcasing their tales of adventure in the exotic lands of Oceania.
For lovers of historical memorabilia, graphic art and the romance of travel, this PDF collage is an enchanting collection. Each vintage suitcase sticker and label is an emblem of a bygone era – a time when every destination promised a story and every journey was a testament to one’s class and status.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The PDF downloads are crafted from digitally enhanced quality images from original vintage luggage labels. Files can be saved to your PC or MAC and then used over and over again. Each label on the sheet measures 2 1/2″.
These digital sheets are formatted to print on Avery® White High-Visibility Labels for Laser Printers 5294, 2-1/2″ which can easily be purchased online. When used with self-adhesive printer paper, these labels can be printed and pasted on many surfaces like books, laptops, boxes, pieces of luggage, and much more. They make fun party stickers too!
You can alternatively print our PDF files on any A4 paper your printer allows, like for instance a full A4 sheet sticker and cut them off individually by using a round 2.5″ glass or shape, and a cutter. You might also want to use stickier paper if you want to paste the labels on your suitcase, as the Avery labels are easier to peal-off over time. Keep in mind that after printing, leave the labels to dry before using them, as the ink could rub off if you use them immediately.
The image preview on the page is a low-resolution jpg and is not suitable for printing. The copy that you receive will be in a high-resolution PDF format.
