Super rare and original Japanese poster to support the later 1981 film release. This is a stunning poster with artwork by Renato Casaro, which will look simply amazing framed! This is a simply beautiful poster and a must for all Queen and Flash Gordon fans.It is clear that this poster (initially supplied flat to the cinema) has been rolled for many years, with very light wavy creasing from the rolling process. (Having framed hundreds of items, this will look amazing if mounted on a backing prior to framing). Grading this poster critically as excellent minus (-) condition. And a really lovely example of this rare poster.
