Watchmen props

Couple of screencaps from "Under the Hood":

And this should help if anyone is working on the spectre newspaper:

I thought I'd show off my current Watchmen prop/collectible display.

I've got a few more on the way, hopefully to be added soon.
 
Is anyone working on the Silk Spectre newspaper she's holding? I have a pretty good reference picture of it that I could work with, was thinking about putting the finished thing on newsprint.

There are so many fonts in the thing though, not sure if I'm up to the task, but if no-one is working on it, I could put some time in.

Also, was there a photo of The New Frontiersmen all together like the Minutemen?

Are your measurements for the Behind You sign based on any references or did u just guess? I would like to make a sign like this too.

I would love to get one from you if you were able to make one! I have a friend doing a Silk Spector costume and she really, really wants one.

You mean 1970 Watchmen?
The only one I saw in the entire movie was the 'shopped one that was released before the movie came out. It is framed on Sally Jupiter's wall when Laurie is talking to her during Eddie's funeral. Nobody else seems to have one displayed. They also aren't even in the same positions they were when Dan snapped the photo.

Oh right, in that case I came across this photo (in huge format) that someone might like to work on to remove the staples.

I also might work on the 1939 newspaper if I can find all the fonts and details as I think for best effect, it would be worth retyping all the news out (and there's alot of it). Then maybe find an easy and effective way to put it on newsprint and wrap it around a donor newspaper.
 
Wow, great find! The "Journal" text is almost exactly the same. The coffee cup stains should be easy to replicate, just leave a hot coffee mug on there, and it looks like there's two stains overlapping. If I remember correctly the journal in the movie is a patchy light brown, with some darker brown in spots.

EDIT: Found the photo I was thinking of:

What would be some good strategies to weather the rest of it?
