i have to make a type poster using garamond and i'm stuck any one done anything similar they can show me, so i can get some ideas????

surely this poster must have a purpose other than simply what typeface is used
its an absurd question, may aswell just say "ok, I think you should put a full bleed image closeup of a clittoris with the words 'bacon chewing gum octopus skin lego fruit' over the top in garamond.

why not begin by researching the designer/history of the typeface and see what that throws up.

yeah, that's actually a good angle rasko. you might stumble on something interesting.

Here's the best poster I've seen using Garamond. Smart and simple.

Exactly. Nonetheless - a concept can save an old font.
