HI!
You could use the big calendars - you know the one with pictures on top of the month...

Otherwise find the big books about wwii with b/w photos, takes pictures and develop them in b/w. Just suggestions.

Good luck with it

You can use the scenery posters as backdrop picture.
Let me show the one that I used with my Leopold which I bought for less than $2. It's probably one of the biggest backdrop pictures ever used (size = 100 x 150 cm) :
