Important Added Info: Note that this is a rare "country of origin" poster for this Japanese movie! This Japanese poster measures 20" x 28 1/2" and is linenbacked.

Condition: fine. This poster was linenbacked and during the backing process, its extremely minor defects were repaired and it now looks really great! We only assigned this grade ("fine") to posters that were in really excellent condition prior to linenbacking, AND which were linenbacked by a top professional!

The poster was never folded and was in quite nice condition prior to linenbacking, and it was well backed, and looks great!
