This is one of the famous design byToshiro Kataoka. The poster is like hand-drawn Mincho-style typography and a symmetrical composition with well-balanced . Each character in the illustration has a strong and unique personality, and the overall design is simple, using no color. The poetic advertising copy and funny visuals creates an interesting impression.
