Thumbnail for 09/02/2014: Beatles poster

While many promotional materials for the Beatles’ movie A Hard Day’s Night mimicked the style of the album, it’s interesting to see the how artwork for the same movie played for international audiences. For example, this rare poster used for promotion in Japan, takes a completely different approach with layered color, typography and illustration. The end result serves as both art and advertisement. Check out a larger photo at the excellent Movie Poster of the Day blog. Via Quipsologies.
