The Thomas Crown Affair 1968 Japanese 2 Sheet Film Poster

About the Item

Super rare and beautiful first-year-of-release Japanese 2 Sheet film poster for Steve McQueen and Faye Dunaway classic The Thomas Crown Affair. Wonderful montage imagery and fantastic Japanese typograhy make this poster as cool as the King of Cool himself! The Japanese Tatekan (also known as Tatsumi) which translates to a standing or signboard poster were printed in two pieces which were to be pasted together on the bill boards. Far rarer, and more striking than the standard Japanese B2 posters, they are highly collectible. This vintage movie poster been professionally linen-backed and is sized 20 1/4 x 58 inches (plus a little more with the linen-backing). It will be sent rolled (unframed).
