This is an original licensed promotional B2 poster produced in 1989 in Japan for Hayao Miyazaki’s Kiki’s Delivery Service (魔女の宅急便). Issued for record-store / retail display to promote the film’s Image Album ahead of the summer 1989 roadshow (not a cinema one-sheet), it carries period rights for Eiko Kadono / Nibariki / Tokuma Shoten and Tokuma Japan / Tokuma Communications.
Poster design
A striking deep-blue silhouette of Kiki flying on her broom with Jiji stretched behind dominates the sheet against a pale ground. Above, the bold red Japanese title runs beneath the line ’89夏、全国洋画系ロードショー, while the English headline “KIKI” is paired with the memorable copy “I was really down for a while, but I’m okay now.” Along the lower band, pale blue text announces the Image Album release on April 10, centered with a small printed portrait of Kiki. The spare layout, generous negative space and elegant silhouette give it classic early Ghibli promo appeal.
