“Packed with characters from upper and lower class society and reminiscent of the TV series, Downton Abbey, or Upstairs, Downstairs,…”
Or maybe even reminiscent of, uhh, some movie I remember, what was its name again?
No kidding. There are pretty endless novels, memoirs, biographies, tell-alls (!) and you-name-its about the Titanic over the years. Even Dirk Pitt visited it! It’s like P&P “homages.” Endless, absolutely a bottomless pit and yes, I mostly mean, PIT.
I do like the historical advertisement. Looks like a slightly 3D metal plate with rusty edges. What I’d do here is take advantage of that neat bit of existing art by putting the actual book title below it in a way that looks like a paper handbill, inked and slightly yellowed and tilted. As seen here the historical art is framed only by slick modern typography. As for the font I’d try to match the old one or try something else with an old-time look, like the lettering of the cover of “The Devil In the White City” or any old circus ad.

Captain Ron? Cabin Boy?
Erik the Viking?
Speed II?
Honestly, it doesn’t even have to be that version of the Titanic because there have been so many movies about it over the years…

Maybe it’s the cartoon version with the rapping dog.
Perhaps his name is Daniel Michelangelo Delegrombian so he used his initials.

Dude! Spoiler.
