About the Image

The image is based on a public domain postcard. Its large-letter style is attributed to the work of Tichnor Brothers, who were pioneers of vintage postcard design in the 20th century.

While we don’t aim to romanticize the past, we chose this image because it continues to highlight what’s enduringly beautiful about Oakland, its geographic diversity, architectural richness, and unmistakable vibe. It was also the most popular design in our Kickstarter campaign, showing just how much this city resonates.

About the Artist: Tichnor Brothers

The Tichnor Brothers were a Boston-based printing and graphic design company that flourished in the early to mid-1900s. They’re best known for producing large-letter city postcards, a style that became a hallmark of American visual culture. Their work helped define the retro travel aesthetic, and their designs remain a favorite for nostalgic collectors and modern creatives alike.
