Historical Movie Poster

Pretend your a piece of history has been made into a movie. Create a POSTER to advertise your "movie"(textbook section). Your poster should be easy to read from 30 feet away. Be creative. AVOID: Do NOT copy the text book's cover...this will result in a grade of zero. Also avoid, sloppy picture and lettering, colors that do not work together, late work and lack of effort. Your poster will not have white space---(unless it is a part of the picture, a uniform, whites of people's eyes) etc...
