Return Of Godzilla Very Rare MOVIE TICKET ORIG 1ST RELEASE ISSUE 1984 Japan MINT

Description: ORIGINAL FIRST RELEASE ISSUE RELEASED DECEMBER 15, 1984 JAPANESE MOVIE TICKETS Vintage Japanese movie tickets are typically distributed in limited quantities by theaters at the time of the original theatrical release of the film in Japan. What make Japanese movie tickets so desirable is that they are, for the most part, in full-color, are intricately designed featuring artwork, characters, and scenes from the film that are very similar to movie posters from the large mainstream movie theaters. These color movie tickets are actually “micro-posters” in relation to the full-size movie posters. There are also 2-color (sometimes all-color) movie tickets which are distributed in limited quantities by the independent community and locally owned, non-profit cinema and arts centers... but, these tickets are much more scarce as these theaters are significantly smaller with limited seating. These 2-color tickets are essentially indistinguishable as the full-color movie tickets with the same intricately designed artwork, characters and scenes from the film. These different type movie tickets not only serve as a physical memento of the movie going experience in Japan, but also considered collectibles due to their condition, rarity, limited availability, movie popularity, aesthetic appeal and poster design. Movie tickets are considered “used” the moment they are printed and come out of the machine. The theater usher then removes the “stub-end” off the ticket, prints an ink stamp on the reverse side of the ticket and the moviegoer proceeds to the seating area to watch the film. These tickets, if saved, may have other general signs of handling such as edge wear, wrinkles, creases, a minute chip or unobtrusive smudges or marks. There are movie tickets, purchased by the moviegoer, that are not used at all, for whatever reason. These “unused” movie tickets, if handled, protected and stored away properly will remain highly sought after and become very collectible. It is indeed very rare to find a totally complete and intact “unused” movie ticket that is in “like new” condition. It is much more unusual to find a “used” movie ticket in “like new” condition.
