I'm almost finish with an Egyptian citygate which I will use in a WWII NA dio, depicting english vehicles and soldiers. I'd like to put posters and such on the gate , but is'nt so sure about what kind of posters there would be.
'Course there would be english and even french posters, but some Egyptian ones would be nice and add some 'originality' to the dio.

Do you know any manufacture or website that has posters of this kind?

Thanks in advance

I did a Google search for Egyptian posters from the 1940s and got a couple. If you think you like 'em, just reduce them to whatever scale you require using a photo-edit software like Photoshop (or even with Word), and print.

Thanks David

I'll have a closer look at them. They look good - especially the color which will break up the dull color on the gate. Thanks.
