Gigantis: The Fire Monster! 1955
Next up is the second Godzilla film, Gigantis The Fire Monster! Also known as Godzilla Raids Again and Godzilla's Counter Attack, originally released in 1955 in Japan. This was the first in the Godzilla film series to feature two giant monsters fighting each other. Learn more about the film here.
The following three pages are from a press book for Gigantis sent to theaters to help promote its release. I love that the press book suggests that theater owners ask their local armory if they can borrow sub-machine guns, flame throwers, and BAZOOKAS to use as props for the film's release!
The Original Godzilla (1954)
Across the rest of the week I'll be sharing posters for all of the Godzilla films in chronological order of release. We'll begin with the original Godzilla film and some of the more interesting posters inspired by it.

Thanks again for compiling and posting all of these; too cool!
You've made my day.
They're all beautiful, especially the image with the train dangling out of Godzilla's mouth.
