If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning! Note also that this Japanese B2 poster measures 20" x 28 1/4" [51 x 72 cm], but it has not been trimmed. Also 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. Note that, immediately after World War II, the U.S. occupied Japan and part of Germany, and many American movies were shown in both countries between 1945 and the end of the occupation. Most of the Japanese posters we have seen from that period and many of the German posters and programs from the same period have a "Motion Picture Export Association" (MPEA) circular printed logo on the poster or program, and apparently this was a program run in conjunction with the U.S. government. Since there were many U.S. servicemen in Japan and Germany at this time, many of these posters and programs have the title written in both Japanese (or German) and in English. Condition: good. The poster has spotty discoloration along the folds and someone backed those areas with clear tape. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this item prior to placing a bid. Learn More about condition grades
