So take another look - at the special forces in a special kind of hell"; "The toughest fighting force on Earth - and the men who led them had to be just a little bit tougher..."; "Green when they began... Like the color of their berets... But when the going got rough... They became the toughest fighting force on Earth!"; "Produced by Michael Wayne", John Wayne's son; "From the novel 'The Green Berets' by Robin Moore") starring John Wayne, David Janssen, Jim Hutton, Aldo Ray, Raymond St. Jacques, Bruce Cabot, Patrick Wayne, Luke Askew, and George Takei

Artist: Frank McCarthy
Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this Japanese poster! Also note that this Japanese two-panel was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: good to very good. Both panels have slight discoloration at upper right due to exposure to moisture that has some type of bleaching agent but they are not as noticeable from the front. The lower panel has a few pinholes at lower right that have been repaired with tape from the back and they are touched up on front and there is small separation in its lower vertical foldline. The ultra-rare Tatekan is otherwise in pretty nice condition.
