Dances with Wolves (1990) movie program signed on the release day in Japan. The movie program was obtained from a Japanese collector who acquired it from Toshio Ozawa's executive assistant's estate. I am the proud owner of several of these movie programs originally owned by the president of Sony Entertainment of Japan, Toshio Ozawa. Toshio Ozawa was Charmain at Sony Entertainment of Japan. He headed many projects including heading the development and marketing of the Compact Disk (CD) format as well as many others. Whenever a new movie premiered in Japan between 1960 to the mid-2000s, he would kindly ask the whole cast to carefully sign each program during the movie premiere of the film or promotional events in Japan. All signatures are from the release date and the program shows its age with minor border damage and page discoloration. Signed by the cast: Graham Greene Mary McDonnel Maury Chaykin Kevin Costner Robert Pastorelli Floyd Red Crow Wester Wes Studi
