Good Questions: Safari Themed Wallpaper?

Dear Apartment Therapy, Does anyone have a suggestion of a wallpaper similar to the print on the luggage in the film The Darjeeling Limited? Basically a cool animal/safari print wallpaper. Thanks in advance. Paul

American Wallpaper & Blinds online has a good search engine for wallpaper. They have most major books listed. Or you can go do a wallpaper store and ask. There's usually someone there who is familiar with the books and can steer you to the right one.

I find that I have to see samples before I buy because many wallpapers look kinda cheap in person.

I'm guessing Ralph Lauren does something similar to what you're looking for.

I just want the luggage. What are the chances of that happening?

this is pretty close. it is a wallpaper from scalamandre, and it was actually used in another wes anderson film (royal tenenbaums):

Me too! But Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton created the luggage especially for the film....so tragic!

I was going to recommend the Scalamandre also. Its in Gino's on Lex and I loved it when I was young.
