How can anyone not love Girara? Just look at him! He’s completely hapless — no one could be scared by this guy, right?

This is obviously a different style from the other Girara poster I have, and apparently is a tie-up poster (meaning co-promotional with something, like the Totoro Japan Rail poster and others). However, I have not yet established exactly what this is a tie-up WITH. I’m going to have to do some translation on some of the fine print to figure out what the real deal is.

Anyway, a very cool poster, pretty rare, and I’m beyond pleased to have it.

This is a very rare poster. Girara is just a very tough poster… I have only seen two of these in the last eight years, perhaps three. And only one time have I seen the two panel, and I bought and sold it to a collector in Europe.

This one is mounted on linen courtesy of Vintage Movie Art in Vancouver B.C.
