"Shin Onna Tobakushi: Tsubuku Fuda Tsubo" (New Female Gambler: Tumbling Cards) – Japanese STB Poster
新 女賭博師 轟く札肌 | Toei, 1971 | Directed by Teruo Ishii | Starring Kyōko Enami, Michiyo Yasuda, Kanjūrō Arashi
A rare and visually electric STB-format poster from Toei’s New Female Gambler series, fronted by the legendary Kyōko Enami. Sword in hand and dragon emblazoned across her kimono, she leads another high-stakes descent into a world where honor, survival, and vengeance all come down to the roll of the dice.
This 1971 entry escalates the drama with tangled loyalties, steely rivalries, and a convent subplot as women wield both weapons and wit in male-dominated gambling dens. Director Teruo Ishii brings his signature stylized pulp flair—expect sharp angles, tight close-ups, and atmospheric danger.
Printed in the tall STB format and wonderfully preserved, this piece radiates femme yakuza power with theatrical color and tension. A stunning addition for collectors of pinky violence, josei yakuza, or vintage Japanese exploitation cinema ephemera.
