We’ve had this poster sitting around for six years. We were holding it back in hopes we’d track down the movie, but we’ve given up. This was made to promote Shojo no irezumi, which premiered today in 1976. It had no Western release, thus no English title, however 処女の刺青 translates as “virgin tattoo.” We gather the movie is a documentary or pseudo-documentary. A few posters of this type that we’ve shared were painted by Kaname Ozuna, but this artist is unknown, and that’s another reason we resisted uploading it. But maybe it’s better to see whether any of you know who painted it. If so, feel free to tell us.
