Collection: Golden Age Cinema

From the 40s to the 60s.

Before the rise of the modern blockbuster, Japanese studios commissioned bold, graphic posters for domestic theatrical releases.

This collection presents original, theatre-used prints from the period, including landmark titles such as Throne of Blood and the Japanese release of Goldfinger.

Often hand-painted and typographically daring, these works diverge sharply from their Western counterparts, capturing a distinct and influential chapter in twentieth-century film history.
