“City of Perth — Western Australia” Vintage Travel Poster (c.1950)
Bathed in warm light and framed by the curve of the Swan River, this striking poster presents Perth as Australia’s sunlit western gateway. Produced around 1950, it captures a confident, modern city emerging from the post-war years—green parklands, sailboats on calm water, and a skyline that promised opportunity, ease, and open space.
A city of light, water, and western horizons.
