The Artisan Process
For more than ten years we have specialized in vintage trailer restoration, and we live in a vintage mobile home ourselves. Fully immersed and passionate, we make most of our products in-house—selecting materials and working with local vendors and American craftspeople. We share original vintage finds and refined replicas so others can experience the same heightened mid-century travel lifestyle we know and love.
Ordinary travel gets you there. Mid-century travel changes how you arrive.

Exact replica of an original 1940s Grand Canyon souvenir hat. Taken apart piece by piece and built again to match the original.
Wool felt with a heat-pressed vintage graphic. One side is the Grand Canyon text. The other side is the canyon and the Watchtower. That is the whole layout.
Put it on at the rim and the place shifts. You are not one more person in the crowd with a phone. You are standing there in the same kind of felt tourist hat someone wore in the 1940s — name on one side, Watchtower on the other — looking out like the trip still works that way.
The Grand Canyon sees about 5 million visitors a year. Only a few will be wearing this. Exclusive to the brand Mid-Century Traveler, available for a limited time. Buy it online, take it to the canyon, and you are one of the very few who get that 1940s visit.
Pair it with our replica 1950s Grand Canyon guides and become fully immersed as a mid-century traveler.
Want to see the vintage original in person? Stop by on your way to the Grand Canyon. We will have it out with a few other vintage Grand Canyon pieces.
Women’s souvenir wedge cap. Anyone can wear it for the look. Pull it on and face the text or the Watchtower toward the camera.

Spartan Owner’s Packet replica. Made in the USA.
The year is 1954. Spring hits and you do something impulsive. You walk into a dealership and buy a brand-new Spartan trailer — aircraft aluminum, Tulsa-built, the Cadillac of trailers. The plan is simple: see the country. New roads. New towns. New sky.
You walk out holding your owner’s packet from Spartan Aircraft Company, Tulsa, Oklahoma. You sit in the car and read every page like it’s the map to the rest of your life.
Seventy years later, that packet almost never arrives with the trailer. What’s missing isn’t just paper. It’s a different kind of excitement — not only the pride of owning the trailer, but that first-day feeling. Sitting there with the packet in your hands. The trip suddenly real.
You can polish the aluminum until it looks factory-fresh. You can restore every latch and every panel. It still isn’t complete without the paperwork.
It is a near exact replica of the original owner’s booklet and packet for a 1950s Spartan.
What’s included
• Specially printed envelope
• Spartan Owner’s Manual
• Your Spartan Warranty card
• Bonus: booklet artwork keychain
Available only for a limited printing run.
Shipping:
We ship the Vintage Spartan replica owners packet the old-school way: three stamps and a handwritten address.
Based in Phoenix, Arizona, and sent via USPS with no tracking—just pure mid-century mail. Expect delivery anywhere in the United States within about a week.
Returns:
Your purchase helps preserve history. The more of these booklets that exist, the less likely they are to be lost to time. Printed on heavier stock paper than the originals, they are made to last roughly ten times longer.
We do not accept returns at this time. Thank you for your purchase and for helping preserve the history of these vintage Spartans.
