Movie Synopsis: This film, centered on Suzu Urano (Ava Pickard: English Voice), opens when she is a child in pre-war Japan. She lives in a small town that is part of the city of Hiroshima. She helps her parents farming seaweed and in her free time engages in her love of art. Then, when she is eighteen in 1943, she receives a marriage proposal from a man in the city of Kure; a naval port fifteen miles away. She accepts the proposal and moves to Kure where she becomes part of his family. At first they are unaffected by the war but gradually shortages increase and then the city is targeted by American bombers leading to wide scale destruction and personal tragedy.

 

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.
