Artist: Kazuhiko Sano Important Added Info: This is a very rare uncut printer's test poster (often referred to as a "printer's proof")! Before a poster was printed in large quantities, the printer would print a limited number of posters as "test" posters. Because they needed to be shown to people at the studio, people in the art department, the stars, etc, they would print a number of test posters and distribute them to these people. Some of them would be fully trimmed, but often they would leave the color chart on the left edge of many of the posters, which added an extra inch to the width of the poster (which explains why the poster measures 28" x 41"). Once these printer's test posters were shown to the various people in a position to "OK" them, the printer would print the full print run of the posters. Not only is a printer's test poster far more rare than a regular poster, but it is also 100% genuine as there is no fear of purchasing a reproduction! Also note that the printer printed the images of the 3, 6, and 24 sheet posters on the back of this poster. We have provided an image of both sides of the poster, but please bid knowing the winning bidder will receive ONE poster! Finally, note that the poster is marked "International" on the bottom, indicating it was printed in the U.S. for use in non-U.S. countries. Condition: very good. There are minor creases and scuff marks scattered throughout the poster but they are not very noticeable or distracting. Overall, the poster is in pretty nice condition and it displays well.
