This is an original Japanese B2 movie poster printed in 1989 for the first Japanese theatrical release of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (インディ・ジョーンズ／最後の聖戦), directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Harrison Ford, with Sean Connery as Professor Henry Jones Sr.
Film background
Released in 1989, The Last Crusade is the third Indiana Jones film and a return to the series’ pulpy, globe-trotting adventure spirit—built around the father–son dynamic between Indy and his estranged academic father. The hunt for the Holy Grail blends comedy, set-piece action, and old-world mystery, and the film is widely regarded as one of the strongest entries in the franchise thanks to the chemistry between Ford and Connery.
Poster design
This Japanese B2 uses a warm, painted illustration style that feels perfectly of its era: Indy’s fedora-shadowed portrait dominates the centre, framed by Henry Jones Sr. behind him and a montage of supporting characters and action beats staged within an arch-like composition. The side copy leans into the film’s core hook—Indy and his father—while the bottom features bold, high-impact Japanese title typography 「インディ・ジョーンズ／最後の聖戦」 with the classic Indiana Jones logo. The overall palette—sun-baked oranges and sepias—evokes desert heat, ancient stone, and the romance of archaeological adventure.
