Outside Millington, the Chickasaw Bluffs fall away through big oak, beech and sweetgum into a bottomland swamp of bald cypress and tupelo, with the Mississippi running along the park's western edge. Edward J. Meeman, editor of the Memphis Press-Scimitar, led the fight to keep this forest out of the loggers' hands, and the park carries his name. At sundown, the river boat ramp is the place to watch the barges go by.

The design: the view from the Chickasaw Bluffs over cypress and tupelo swamp to a barge on the Mississippi River at sunset, drawn in a flat vintage park-poster style inside a Tri-Star red frame, with MEEMAN-SHELBY up top, TENNESSEE PRIDE® below and the Tri-Star on the left sleeve.

Printed on the Bella+Canvas 3001: soft, lightweight, with just the right amount of stretch.

Every park design is an illustration in a vintage poster style. We simplify each scene to make a good poster, so it won't match the park detail for detail. Colors can also look a little different in person than on your screen.

About the place

Meeman-Shelby Forest State Park

Meeman-Shelby Forest State Park, about a dozen miles north of downtown Memphis, takes in the Third Chickasaw Bluff and the river bottoms below it. Under the bluff, a forest of oak, cypress and tupelo runs out to the Mississippi River, and bald cypress crowd its sloughs. The park began in the 1930s as a New Deal project, and Civilian Conservation Corps crews did its early work. Its name honors Edward J. Meeman, a Memphis newspaper editor and conservationist who helped bring it about.
