An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Japanese Export (printed for use in English speaking countries) "B1" Movie Poster (29x41; measures 28 1/2" x 40 1/2" [72 x 103 cm]) (Learn More) Gojira Tai Mekagojira (released in the U.S. in 1977 as "Godzilla vs. Bionic Monster" and as "Godzilla vs. Cosmic Monster", and exported to English-speaking countries from Japan as "Godzilla VS. Mechagodzilla"), the 1974 Jun Fukuda Japanese Toho kaiju battling rubbery monsters science fiction (sci-fi) thriller ("See the Mighty Godzilla in a fight to the death with his mechanical double!"; "All new! Never seen before!"; "Godzilla fights his robot double to prevent destruction of Earth!") starring Godzilla, Mechagodzilla, Anguirus, King Caesar, Masaaki Daimon, Kazuya Aoyama, Reiko Tajima, Akihiko Hirata, and Hiromi Matsushita. Note that Universal (producers of The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman) threatened to sue because of the word "bionic" in the U.S. title. The title was quickly changed to Godzilla vs. Cosmic Monster during it's first release run and remained the same when it was re-released in 1978. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this Japanese B1 poster was printed in Japan, but was intended to be used when the movie was shown in English speaking countries. Also note that this is a rare Japanese "B1" poster that measures 28 1/2" x 40 1/2" [72 x 103 cm]! "B1" posters are FAR more rare than "B2" posters (which measure approximately 20" x 28 1/2"), and because they are larger (similar in size to a U.S. one-sheet), they are more impressive when displayed on a wall! Finally, note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good to very good. The poster was folded in half an extra time resulting in horizontal folds in between the edges and regular horizontal folds. It was clamped in a frame at top and has some creases and slight discoloration along that area. It has some light creases scattered in various areas and some fold wear but is otherwise in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
