Vintage Marineland Tea Towel Cushion Cover | 1970s Surfers Paradise Souvenir

A glorious snapshot of a very different Gold Coast.

Long before theme parks became slick and polished, family holidays were filled with postcards, souvenir tea towels and wide-eyed wonder. This authentic 1970s cotton tea towel captures the golden age of Surfers Paradise, featuring a wonderfully nostalgic Marineland scene: a leaping dolphin reaching skyward towards a bikini-clad trainer, framed by a deep blue Queensland sky and an appreciative crowd.

Lovingly repurposed by Love And West in our Sydney studio, this one-of-a-kind vintage tea towel cushion cover celebrates the bold graphics, cheerful optimism and unmistakable charm of Australian holiday memorabilia.

The front showcases the original vintage souvenir tea towel, while the reverse is crafted from colourful floral cotton drill, chosen to complement the vibrant coastal palette of the design. An invisible zip closure provides a neat finish and allows for easy removal of the insert.

Rich with character and impossible to replicate, this handmade cushion cover brings a playful touch of Australian nostalgia to living rooms, sunrooms, holiday houses and vintage-inspired interiors.
