The Warriors — Japanese Release

Coming soon

Archive note

A recovered theatrical poster for Walter Hill's 1979 cult film The Warriors, distributed in Japan under the title ザ・ウォリアーズ (Za Woriāzu). The triptych layout isolates three iconographic moments: a fist clutching a gold coin, the red 'Warriors' patch on denim, and the protagonist's defiant gaze. The tagline '1979年、彼らの夜が始まる。' (1979: Their Night Begins) positions the film as a temporal artifact, a specific moment in urban cinema history. Marked with Sears house number 79-WARR-CAT, suggesting alternate distribution through American retail channels. Speaks to collectors of international cinema ephemera and 1970s genre-film marketing.

Catalogued, not yet released. This artifact will become available to acquire soon.

One artifact. One owner. On acquisition it is permanently retired from the archive. You receive the high-resolution file and a signed certificate of exclusivity.
