A remnant of the 1971 Baltimore Orioles' tour of Japan, posters of this type are extremely rare due to their ephemeral and fragile natures. Measuring 20.5x29", it rates as EX due to mild staining at the upper right corner and along the right edge, along with very minor tears at the right edge, but it is still easily suitable for framing and display. The Orioles played 18 games against various teams of Japan Pro Baseball stars, recording a 13-2 record, with three games ending in ties. This poster is a promotional piece for the game of October 24, 1971, between the Orioles and Yomiuri Giants, as Japanese legend Sadaharu Oh homered to account for his team's only run.
