This is an original Japanese pamphlet-poster from the first release of Equinox Flower in 1958.
This pamphlet is from 1958 and is incredibly rare even in Japan.
This poster was acquired by Japan Poster Shop, along with many other rare 1950-1970`s posters (all in excellent to near mint condition), from a Japanese supplier near Osaka. The posters were previously carefully stored in a warehouse belonging to an entrepreneur who used to own a cinema until the 1980`s (when it went bankrupt due to the rise in VHS video).
This size of poster can be displayed anywhere, it is ideal for an office, or at home.
This poster will make a beautiful gift for family, friend or.... yourself!
The artwork is fantastic and unique to this Japanese poster.
Yasujiro Ozu is one of Japan`s most celebrated and prolific directors and directed 44 films over a very long career.
It's 1950s Tokyo, and an old-fashioned father (Shin Saburi) disapproves of his eldest daughter's impulsive choice of a husband in this "home drama" from director Yasujiro Ozu, using color for the first time. Change is inevitable, and Ozu does a masterful job of portraying the angst of a father struggling to embrace more modern ways. This beautiful country of origin poster. (Source: HA)
