“Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (風の谷のナウシカ)”, Original Japanese Soundtrack Album Promotional Poster 1984, B2 Size (51 × 73 cm) O81

This is an original Japanese B2 promotional poster issued in 1984 for Animage Records’ “Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind – Drama Album” (アニメージュレコード「風の谷のナウシカ・ドラマ編」). Made for record-shop display (not sold to the public), it carries the Animage / Tokuma Shoten logo at the top left and the credit 作画／宮崎駿 (“Art by Hayao Miyazaki”) at lower right.

Film background
Serialized in Animage magazine beginning in 1982, Nausicaä became Hayao Miyazaki’s breakthrough feature in 1984, with a score by Joe Hisaishi. The film’s success directly led to the founding of Studio Ghibli the following year; its music releases—image and drama albums—helped define the Ghibli sound and built anticipation for the theatrical premiere.

Poster design
A serene watercolor/ink illustration by Hayao Miyazaki shows Nausicaä leaning forward from her glider (Mehve) with Teto on her shoulder, gazing across a vast green valley and cloudbank. The composition is largely text-free—just the Animage emblem and tiny release line along the bottom—giving the piece the feel of a fine-art print and making clear it is a music/record campaign rather than a theatrical credit poster.

Condition
Very good / excellent overall. Light handling and gentle waviness with foxing at the lower right margin (see photos). Presents beautifully when framed.

It is over 40 years old.

It is not a reproduction or a reprint.

Certificate of Authenticity included.
