Nakano Broadway - Japanese Posters

I've just been down to Nakano Broadway in Tokyo hunting for movie posters and sad to say there's only two poster dealers left. It's the first time I've ever been down there and come back empty handed - didn't pick up a single poster. Two of the guys I used to trade with have gone now - there used to be a book shop that had a stack of posters and the guy in the corner on the 3rd floor by the toilets has gone. There's a new guy on the 3rd floor who only deals in retro Japanese movies which I'm not interested in and then there's the guy on the 4th floor still going although his prices have gone up a lot and the yen is so strong it is fairly pointless buying his stuff right now. A real shame that there's no-one else trading down there any more... a think it's a sign of the times with so much business being done on the internet now.

Yeah, I was there a year and a half ago. I think then there was one more selling mainly new stuff. I've bought a few in Nakano, but it was more like tourist shopping abroad than a collector's adventure.

Mandarake has been expanding their poster offerings lately, but the heydays of Nakano a decade ago are long gone when you could shop all three Trios, Mandarake, Maniac, and 3-4 independent dealers all with stacks of vintage material.
Even the best shops in Osaka are falling by the wayside now.
