Titled \u003cem\u003e\"You Belong In The Zoo\"\u003c\/em\u003e, these striking graphics capture the playful irreverence of 1970s Australian design — bold typography paired with exuberant wildlife illustration, each framed and ready to command attention on any wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginally produced for the Melbourne Zoo circa 1970, posters of this era are increasingly difficult to source — let alone as a pair, both in their original period frames and in very good comparable condition. Whether displayed together or across a room, they carry an unmistakable sense of nostalgia and wit, speaking to an era when public institutions commissioned genuinely memorable graphic art. The caricature illustration style and Pop Art sensibility give these pieces a timeless, humorous quality that transcends their origins as advertising material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn exceptional acquisition for collectors of Australian ephemera, mid-century graphic design, vintage advertising, or zoo and natural history memorabilia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdetails open=\"\"\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem Specifics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Original Vintage Poster \/ Panoramic Print (Pair)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSubject:\u003c\/strong\u003e Melbourne Zoo — \"You Belong In The Zoo\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear of Production:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1970 (Time Period: 1970–1989)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal or Reprint:\u003c\/strong\u003e Original\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduction Technique:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lithography (Offset Lithograph)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Panoramic \/ Landscape Print\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImage Colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Colour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImage Orientation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Landscape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 79cm x 30cm (each)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paper \/ Heavy Card Stock with Metal Frames\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFraming:\u003c\/strong\u003e Framed — Original Period Frames\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Matte\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 (Matched Pair — Sold as a Lot)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Caricature, Illustration, Pop Art, Vintage Advertising\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTheme:\u003c\/strong\u003e Advertising, Humour, Pop Art, Retro, Australian, Subcultures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e Framed, Matched Pair, Original Period Frames\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Used — Very Good (please refer to images for full condition detail)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CC\u0026U Collections","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48852477477054,"sku":null,"price":380.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6176\/2238\/files\/remove_all_background_tur...p_it_in_original_qualtiiy3.png?v=1788788289","url":"https:\/\/ccucollections.com.au\/products\/pair-rare-vintage-melbourne-zoo-posters-you-belong-in-the-zoo-framed-1970s","provider":"CC\u0026U Collections","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
