The 1950s are a golden decade for Japanese cinema—and for original Japanese movie posters. This collection brings together authentic theatrical posters from the era, including some of the rarest pieces we handle. With many examples now over 70 years old, surviving posters are increasingly scarce—especially in strong display condition—making them highly sought after by collectors worldwide.
