Haere Mai Vintage NZ Travel Poster

Vintage NZ Travel Poster

Image size in millimetres: 300 x 420

Haere Mai translates from Maori into English as "Welcome". This NZ vintage poster was originally designed by the Department of Tourist and Health Resorts and printed "by authority of W A G Skinner, Government Printer, Wellington" circa 1920. The view shows a Maori woman in the foreground lowering food into a boiling pool with a meeting house or whare in the background - presumably in one of the geothermal areas around Rotorua. Haere Mai (Welcome to New Zealand) has only recently been re-issued for the first time as a high quality digital print taken from an original vintage poster. The image is printed onto lovely watercolour paper using extremely lightfast inks that will give you many years of enjoyment.
