“Dragon Ball / GeGeGe no Kitarō / Kinnikuman” (ドラゴンボール／ゲゲゲの鬼太郎／キン肉マン), Toei Manga Matsuri Triple-Bill Poster 1987, Rare, B2 Size (c. 51 × 73 cm) O651

This is an original Japanese B2 poster issued in Japan for the 1987 Toei Manga Matsuri (東映まんがまつり) programme—a special holiday theatrical event that packaged multiple animated features/shorts together for a limited run. This colourful triple-bill pairs Dragon Ball (ドラゴンボール) with GeGeGe no Kitarō (ゲゲゲの鬼太郎) and Kinnikuman (キン肉マン), making it a superb crossover piece of late-Showa pop culture—exactly the kind of cinema ephemera that was displayed briefly, then discarded, and is now increasingly difficult to find in high-grade condition.

Poster design
An explosive, celebratory New Year-themed design engineered for maximum shopfront impact. A radiant rising-sun burst fills the top half in red and yellow, crowned with playful headline copy reading 「お正月だよ！ビッグ3勢揃いでおめでとう!!」 (“It’s New Year! Congratulations—the Big Three are all here!”). Three framed panels present each property in bright, toy-box colour: GeGeGe no Kitarō at left (with Kitarō and yokai imagery), Dragon Ball at right (Goku and friends in full adventure mode), and Kinnikuman at bottom (Kinnikuman front and centre with a full crowd of opponents/allies behind). The overall composition feels like a deluxe kids’ festival programme in poster form—bold character art, crisp outlines, and saturated inks that display beautifully on a wall. A quintessential piece for collectors of Toei holiday cinema, early Dragon Ball theatrical material, and 1980s manga/anime ephemera.
