There are at least three different styles from the original release of Star Wars — this teaser advance is certainly the scarcest of any of those styles in my experience. You can see all the different types of Japanese Star Wars posters at Star Wars movie poster.com.

Mirror Man! Has anyone actually seen this? Looks like a real romp, from the pioneering days of the semi-robot suited superheros. Actually, the original TV version of Miraman dates BEFORE Ultraman, and the movie came out 6 years before. I’m not an expert on all the intricacies of the history, but clearly Miraman was a groundbreaking concept.

A wonderful two panel featuring one of my favorite actresses. The tatekan once again proves its superiority in delivering an excellent image.

Kagemusha Japanese movie poster - Akira Kurosawa art

Kagemusha B2 Japanese movie poster featuring Akira Kurosawa art, originally uploaded by japanese-movie-posters.

Recent acquisition: Kagemusha — Akira Kurosawa art

Akira Kurosawa is well known for sketching his own storyboards in remarkable detail, and he also designed at least a couple different movie posters including this rare find. Note his signature in English at the bottom right. He also designed the B2 and tatekan for Dodesukaden, for those interested. This is a beautiful example on matte thick paper stock with no wear at all. Excellent!

    Zero Woman: Red Handcuffs 2 panel (tatekan) Japanese movie poster, originally uploaded by japanese-movie-posters.

    Very rare Japanese 2 panel movie poster for Miki Sugimoto’s Zero Woman: Red Handcuffs (Zeroka no onna: Akai wappa) — actually the only one of these I have ever seen. I have only seen the B2 for this perhaps twice.

    I’ve had this tatekan for a while but it has been tucked away. I’m thinking about putting it on linen, but haven’t decided yet. I’m accepting offers on this; for the ultimate Pink Violence collector.

    On Any Sunday Japanese B1 movie poster, originally uploaded by japanese-movie-posters.

    An extremely rare poster, featuring art seen on no other version I am aware of and in B1 size. I haven’t seen this art on any B2 either. This is the only one I have seen and I don’t expect to see another.

    Not for sale except for a very unreasonable offer.
