(now rolled) Japanese B2 size movie poster with an extra odd angle crease to
the top section of the poster, and another crease across the top right corner
but otherwise in fine condition (see image of actual poster and our grading
scale below). This is not a reprint or reproduction poster, it is a
genuine original 1977 Japanese theatre release colour movie poster as
distributed by Joy Pack Film. We will combine multiple purchases into one
package (if feasible) to save you on postage cost.
All items are sent
standard with tracking (registered post, express post, and extra cover is
available upon request), and are either rolled in bubble wrap and packed in a
very sturdy round end-plugged tube, or folded into their original folds and
placed into a protective sleeve and carefully flat packed into a large stiff
mailing folder with backing board for extra protection during transit.
Image Information: A picture speaks a thousand words and form
an important part of the item description so please take the time to look at
all the images carefully. All images of the actual item for sale and are
photographed under natural lighting (where possible) and have not been
digitally doctored. We do not use stock photos so what you see is what you get.
Movie Synopsis: A scientist doing
experiments on a human fetus discovers a method to accelerate the fetus into a
mature female adult in just a few days. However, the "adult" fetus
turns into a homicidal psycho while he looks for a new formula to prevent her
from aging further...
Japanese Movie Poster Sizes:
B0 -
measures 40" x 58" consisting of 2 'B1' sheets.
B1
- measures 29" x 40" . Most often this is a double size version of
the B2 which would make it vertical, but sometimes it is presented horizontal
with different artwork.
B2
- measures 20" x 29" and is the base size for most Japanese posters.
B3
- Nakazuri - (which means 'hanging inside') measures 14" x 20" about
half the 'B2' used inside bus and train stations. Very similar to a mini sheet
B4
- measures 10" x 29" which is half the size vertically of the B2
poster and half BOTH ways of the STB. Sometimes called a Japanese insert or
'speed' poster.
B5
- Chirashi - a small promo poster similar to a herald or a flyer. Their
measurements vary but the majority are about 7" x 10". These are
quite often printed with information on the back.
STB
- measures 20" x 58" which consists of 2 sheets of 'B2' posters over
and under. These are sometimes called 'Tatekan' posters.
Combined Postage Information: We
will combine any auction or fixed price posters to save you on postage. If you
are buying multiple posters please let us know and then wait until we adjust
the invoice before making payment.
All posters are either rolled and shipped in a cylinder
or folded into their original folds and carefully flat packed into a protective
sleeve and large stiff mailing folder ($2.49 each) with backing board for extra
protection during transit.
For
those concerned about shipping cost please note: The
shipping pricing is out of my hands and Australia Post has recently increased
their prices. I only charge $2 extra and that is because I pack the posters
into a plastic sleeve and then into a stiff envelope ($2.49 each from
Officeworks) with backing card (not between a couple of pieces of crappy
cardboard or rolling folded posters as it affects the folds) so I am actually
losing on postage.
How Our Posters Are Graded
All images of the posters are of the actual poster for
sale so what you see is what you get, we do not use stock photos.
Very Fine – Almost Mint:
Unused with no flaws.
Fine: Generally unused with the original folds and
possible signs of minor ageing but no significant flaws.
Very Good: These have the usual folds, possibly some
pinholes, possible very light blue tack stain spots, minor edge or fold wear,
slips or tears, and unobtrusive stains but no paper loss.
Good: Has possible staining,
pinholes, minor paper lifts in corners, small tears (possibly taped on reverse)
slight fold separations, minor paper loss, and possible blue tack stain spots,
and edge wear but still good enough to frame.
Fair: These posters will need
some restoration and are usually only sold on this site if they are rare and
hard to find. There will be a combination of tears, paper loss, staining,
pinholes and blue tack stains but because of the rarity of the poster, worth
linen backing.
