Vertical 2:3 typographic destination poster for Ikebukuro, Tokyo: an aged cream cotton-paper street bill pasted to a soot-dark wall, deckled edges and staple holes. Exact printed copy, with strict hierarchy: small top line "TOKYO / NORTHWEST"; dominant three-line headline "IKEBU" / "KU" / "RO"; lower line "AFTER THE LAST TRAIN"; tiny footer "NORTH EXIT · 35MM NIGHT WALK". The headline is custom condensed industrial sans lettering: extremely heavy black block forms, tight tracking, blunt squared terminals, slightly uneven baseline. Each letter carries severe readable degradation: about 40% of the ink face has peeled paint islands, horizontal scrape marks, chipped boundaries, hairline cracks, and exposed underlayers; preserve solid cores and unmistakable spelling. Printed in faded vermilion over a misregistered black shadow layer, as worn screenprint ink embedded into the paper fibers. The upper label and footer are narrow utilitarian condensed capitals in rubbed charcoal ink. Composition: centered stacked type fills 72% of the height; small label at top with generous margin; headline from 18% to 72%; phrase centered at 78%; footer at 91%. Behind the paper, only cropped abstract city evidence: out-of-focus amber streetlamp halo at upper right, dark forest-green tiled wall, thin rain streaks, no readable shop signs, no people, no logos. Warm amber side-light from upper right reveals deep paper grain, foxing, smudged paste residue, and the physical raised cracks of worn ink. Palette: aged cream, soot black, faded vermilion, oxidized forest green, amber. High-detail tactile print photograph, controlled grain, sharp legible typography, no extra text.
