Sanderson has just today announced a brand-new line of vintage reproduction wallpapers from the 1950s. I’m uploading photos now — but want to be first on the web! BIG NEWS in our Retro Renovation world! I’m counting 9 new wallpapers, 8 new fabrics for upholstery or curtains and 3 velvets for upholstery. There are many colorways… Most patterns seem to be “documents” — straight from the archives although I think the colorways are reinterpreted for today.
Update: Alas, this was a 2011 collection and it appears no longer available. I’m going to keep this story up for our archive, though — the papers so pretty!
Meanwhile, following is a quick grab of the wallpaper patterns and some of the colorways available:
Here’s the link to their page featuring the new collection of 1950s wallpapers, upholstery and curtain fabrics, and velvets.

I would think you’d have to use them as “accent” walls because they’re so busy. But they are very, very cool!!

You can buy this in the U.S. so I don’t think shipping is a big issue…
TheStrongolis says
Oh wow! Looks great! LOVE the Fifi & the Mobiles. I’ll bet shipping is a doozy too.

Wowsers… those are awesome…
Joe says
How much Dinero for a roll? That could be the make it or break it for us. I’d love to do an accent wall in our bedroom.
pam kueber says
Yo no lo se. I am sure it is mucho dinero. See my ebay carousel today. There is a seller who has some vintage rolls in bulk – go to her Seller page once you click in via my carousel. Some nice stuff there.
Joe says
Thanks for the tip Pam. I need to get one of those eBay carousel thingys for my blog too.
pam kueber says
become an affiliate to get a little spiff – be sure to disclose, be transparent
Barbara says
How DO you get a carousel? I can’t find them on ebay at all?
pam kueber says
i get them via ebay partner network / tools. hey, i need to put up a Tip Jar for this kind of advice! 🙂
