“MTV / Vestron Music Video” (ベストロン・ミュージック・ビデオ), Original Japanese Promo Poster 1987, April 5 Release Campaign, B2 Size (51 × 73 cm) O702

This is an original Japanese B2 promotional poster printed in 1987 for MTV / Vestron Video International’s “Vestron Music Video” campaign—advertising a killer, era-defining slate of music and rock-related video titles released in Japan on April 5.

Film background
A pure time-capsule of the early home-video boom, this poster spotlights six cornerstone “music-on-video” releases that bridged pop superstardom, classic rock history, and the then-new global language of MTV: Making Michael Jackson’s Thriller, A Hard Day’s Night (ビートルズがやって来る ヤァ！ヤァ！ヤァ！), The Rolling Stones (Great Video Hits / Video Rewind), The Beach Boys: An American Band, Dick Clark’s Best of Bandstand, and MTV Closet Classics (Japanese subtitle: 栄光の60年代). Taken together, it’s basically a crash-course in the canon—exactly the sort of lineup collectors love because it pins a specific cultural moment to a single paper artifact.

Poster design
A bold, instantly readable retail-promotional design built around oversized, deep-blue musical notes marching across a cool mint background, with circular “spotlight” images for each featured program. The curved red headline arcing across the top has that unmistakable late-Showa advertising punch, while the clean typography and strong negative space keep the layout crisp despite the amount of information. It’s graphic, upbeat, and unmistakably of its time—a perfect wall piece for anyone into MTV-era ephemera, Japanese music media, or vintage home-video history.
