GREEN CAT dA CONTEST 03 - TAVERN SIGNS

The mission of this contest is to create an original work of art that shows what a "Tavern Sign" for The Green Cat Cabaret would look like on ANY of the worlds where the Green Cat opens its doors. By "Tavern Sign" we mean something like the signs you see swinging over the doors of English pubs: on Earth they look like these

TAVERN SIGN CONTEST DETAILS
For this contest you can create a "Tavern Sign" for The Green Cat as it would look on your favorite world. The unique thing about The Green Cat is that it can open its doors to ANY world at any time or historical period. So one might see a sign for The Green Cat down the road from The Prancing Pony in Bree (Middle-earth) or outside a sleek glassine building on The Grid (TRON) or outside an art deco dancehall from this Earth's past or in a seedy back-ally in the world of Blade Runner. In each case the sign would "fit" in that world.

The only element that must be on the tavern sign is a text block that says "The Green Cat Cabaret", but you can add any other elements you like to the design. See below for links to info about The Green Cat.

Please include the specific world or time period your "tavern sign" is from (e.g. "The Green Cat's tavern sign as it would look in the world of TRON"). If your world happens to be one of your own creation (which is fine), just be sure to tell us a little about your world so we understand how it fits.

Judging will be based in part on how well the tavern sign fits the look and feel of the world it is from.
