“No-Ghost” Logo - Ghostbusters - (1984) - Japanese B2 Teaser Poster

A white ghost reaches through a red prohibition sign against a solid black background. The emblem appears a second time in miniature, nestled between the two halves of the Japanese title, whose blue glow is the only other colour on the sheet.

This teaser design was used for the 1984 Japanese theatrical release of Ivan Reitman’s Ghostbusters. Developed by art director Michael C. Gross and artist Brent Boates, the “No-Ghost” emblem appears on the team’s uniforms and on Ecto-1 in the film. Here, the emblem alone carries the poster.
