Set sail for retro style with this Hey Sailor Sign, featuring nautical pin-up artwork with a cheeky wink.
Nautical pin-up art grew out of the wartime era, when illustrations of glamorous sailors and anchors decorated posters, calendars and aircraft. Sailors themselves had a rich tradition of tattoos, with swallows, anchors and helm wheels each carrying a meaning about voyages and safe passage home. This design borrows from that colourful heritage and looks right at home in a coastal bar, a boat cabin or a seaside-themed bathroom.
The artwork is printed as pictured. Pick from A6 (10.5 × 14.8cm), A5 (21 × 14.8cm), A4 (28.3 × 19.7cm) or A3 (42 × 30.5cm), with either a Distressed finish that looks faded and worn or a Rusted finish with a printed corroded effect.
A good present for sailors, boat owners, navy veterans, sea swimmers and lovers of vintage illustration, or for anyone who dreams of life by the harbour.
