This is an original Japanese B2 theatrical poster printed in 1973 for the first Japanese release of Battle for the Planet of the Apes. A genuine cinema display sheet produced for theatres in Japan.

Film background
Directed by J. Lee Thompson, the fifth and final entry in the original cycle follows Caesar (Roddy McDowall) as fragile peace between apes and humans teeters toward war amid the ruins of a post-nuclear world. Co-starring Claude Akins, Natalie Trundy, Severn Darden, Lew Ayres, Paul Williams, and John Huston.

Poster design
A dramatic montage crowned by a red-tinged planet: Caesar’s wary gaze dominates the center while militia columns, horseback charges, and battlefield explosions sweep across the wasteland horizon. The massive scarlet Japanese title 「最後の猿の惑星」 anchors the composition, with “BATTLE FOR THE PLANET OF THE APES” set along the base—bold, kinetic, and classic early-’70s Fox campaign art.
