1970s Posters

The 1970s were a high point for Japanese poster design—bold colour, striking photography, and adventurous typography that reflects the decade’s energy on screen. This collection brings together original Japanese posters from the era, spanning international classics and Japan’s own genre cinema, with many pieces now over 50 years old and increasingly hard to find in strong display condition.
