This is an original Japanese poster printed in 1954 for the first release of Modern Times.
"Modern Times" is Chaplin's final silent film, it is also the last appearance of the "Little Tramp." Filmed between 1932 and 1936, it was directed, written, scored, and produced by Chaplin himself, and he also starred in his own "one-man show" with his current wife and kindred spirit Paulette Goddard. No one ever had as much success blending biting social commentary with pure slapstick.
This is one of the only copies of this poster still in existence! It has some wonderful colors, amazing Japanese kanji writing.
