They also served as advertisements for exotic places, luxurious accommodations & glamorous methods of transportation. These stencils are in the style of Vintage Luggage Labels & Travel Posters. They were designed to depict a variety of exotic destinations. Use them to decorate an old sea trunk or simply paint them for framing & decoration.These are cut & paint stencils. Most cut & paint stencils are complete with only one stencil & leave you with a silhouette image. These designs each have more than one stencil (called overlays) & they leave you with a complete picture. This book contains 5 designs & each has 5 overlays (except New York which has 6).
