"The Dark Crystal" (ダーククリスタル), Original Japanese First-Release Movie Poster 1983, B2 Size (51 × 73 cm) ZA13

Sale price $125.00

This is an original Japanese B2 poster printed in 1983 for Jim Henson & Frank Oz’s fantasy epic The Dark Crystal. Produced with creature designs by Brian Froud and groundbreaking animatronics, the film has become a cornerstone of 1980s fantasy world-building and a cult favorite worldwide. The artwork on this Japanese sheet is by Richard Amsel (signature visible at lower left).

Design
A parchment-style tableau framed by alchemical circles and glyphs: the Skeksis emperor looms with jeweled scepter while Jen and Kira stand at right; the Mystics and Aughra cluster at left, with Fizzgig peeking out. A jagged fissure opens below into the black spires of the Skeksis castle. The ornate “THE DARK CRYSTAL” logotype sits centrally, with a bold, flame-edged Japanese title 「ダーククリスタル」 anchoring the base—classic Amsel fantasy grandeur.

Condition
Excellent. Please review the photos—they show the exact poster for sale.
