This Japanese B2 poster, originating from the country of the film's release, is exceptionally rare. There appears to be no record of this poster being sold at auction in previous years.

This exceptionally rare original Japanese B2, previously folded, will now be shipped rolled. The poster displays a few minor edge tears, which have been reinforced with archival paper tape on the verso. Overall, the poster appears to be in excellent condition.
