Japanese B3 (12.5" x 20.25") ; The Collection of the Late J. Stephen Ryan
Very Fine+ Rolled; Artwork by Bob Peak
Nippon Herald Films, 1979

This example of the Japanese B3, which is in outstanding condition, features the title rendered in various colors, unlike the stark white title on the US posters. It has two small pieces of cellophane tape on the bottom of the back to stabilize two tiny edge tears and small creases along the bottom edge.

"Apocalypse Now," directed by Francis Ford Coppola, transposes "Heart of Darkness" to the Vietnam War, following Captain Willard's mission to kill the rogue Colonel Kurtz. Its notoriously troubled production stretched over a year and was later chronicled in "Hearts of Darkness."

Estimate: $100 - 200
