Fourth of July Poster_2017 edition_English

The United States of America celebrates its Independence Day on July 4, the day in 1776 when the Continental Congress of the 13 American colonies approved the Declaration of Independence and sent copies throughout the new nation. The representatives had voted two days earlier for independence severing ties with Britain. But to explain their decision to the world, many representatives wanted an official approval by the Continental Congress.

“We hold these truths to be self-evident,” the declaration proclaims. Among them: that all people are created equal, that governments derive their power from the consent of the governed, and that the people may alter or abolish a government that fails to respect its rights.

Celebrate the Declaration of Independence, and the Fourth of July, with our free color poster. It is available in two PDF formats. The low resolution PDF file is suitable for printing in-house on color printers. The high resolution PDF file is meant for professionally printing either by large format inkjet printing or by four-color press and is complete with trim marks.
