Timothy Dalton’s second outing as 007 was a truly gritty tale of revenge and action with a great white shark being an unusual instrument of torture for one scene. Keith Hamshere (who made Dalton the ‘perfect’ Bond in The Living Daylights campaign ) was again retained as the Bond photographer on this 1989 country of origin British UK quad for “Licence to Kill” featuring a moody Timothy Dalton in close up. Genuinely scarce this rolled (as issued) example looks superb and is presented totally unrestored in high grade condition and represents a worthy addition for any poster collector or any collection of James Bond cinematic movie memorabilia.
Trivia: It is widely and incorrectly rumored that this was Timothy Dalton‘s last James Bond film due it being financially disappointing. In reality, Dalton was to star in a third James Bond film after this one, titled “Property of a Lady”, written by Michael G. Wilson and Alfonse Ruggiero Jr. and set to start shooting in 1990, with pre-production work having begun in May of that year. However legal issues with MGM beginning that year created long delays which eventually led Dalton to announce his retirement from the role in 1994, a year after his initial contract expired, paving the way for Pierce Brosnan‘s casting in GoldenEye (1995). Had the film been made, it would have been set in Scotland, Tokyo, and Hong Kong, and would have involved nanotechnology.

“Far Up…Far Out…Far More..”
An outstanding first year of release Japanese STB/Tatekan movie poster for George Lazenby‘s one & only appearance as Ian Fleming’s super spy James Bond in “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service”. A magnificent, James Bond poster with bold vibrant colours and a combination of intricate and detailed all-action artwork combining the artwork of Frank McCarthy and Robert McGinnis with photographic imagery. Immediately recognisable as a Bond film and at almost 5′ tall it’s truly impressive. Genuinely rare, the tatekan STB format had much lower print numbers compared to regular Japanese B2s. Offered in two sections as distributed to cinema and presented unrestored in original rolled condition this example displays to superb effect and represents a fantastic piece of collectable James Bond cinematic memorabilia from one of the most respected entries in this long running franchise.
Trivia: George Lazenby suggested a scene where Bond skis off a cliff and opens a parachute. This was scrapped, as the filmmakers lacked the resources to pull it off. It was used as the opening for The Spy Who Loved Me (1977).

1987 was the end of a historic movie tradition as Brian Bysouth produced the last fully drawn painted James Bond film poster (Fascinating Brian Bysouth interview with Eddie Shannon of Film on Paper) for Timothy Dalton’s 007 debut as “The most dangerous Bond…Ever” in “The Living Daylights”. The advance teaser poster preceding this was a mixture of photograph and artwork created by Brian, the advertising agency Feref, Jeffrey Bacon & David Generic and is distinctive for the see-through negligee. However it is not Bond babe Maryam d’Abo in the shot but American model Kathy Stangel in this famous pose & beautifully photographed by Jim McCrary. The original 1987 UK (country of origin) movie poster offered here is presented in exceptional unrestored, rolled (as issued) unfolded condition with bright and unfaded colour tones and white areas that are truly bright. Hugely desirable and very collectable, it would be a worthy addition to any collection of James Bond movie memorabilia.
Trivia: Kara Milovy (Maryam d’Abo) is the last “main” Bond girl to be blonde until Spectre (2015). All leading Bond girls in the other films since have been brunettes or redheads.

Timothy Dalton’s 007 debut as “The most dangerous Bond…Ever” in “The Living Daylights”. This poster was produced for a 1986 London James Bond exhibition to announce that filming had begun on the latest Bond adventure, “The Living Daylights”, which was to be released the following year. The poster shows a close-up of the front grill from an Aston Martin DB4, which was the model used by the Goldfinger production team during preliminary testing shoots prior to getting the DB5. The original 1986 Advance teaser movie poster offered here is presented in excellent unrestored, rolled (as issued) unfolded condition with content perfectly suited to this landscape style with beautiful black and white photographic tones with a hint of metallic silver. Hugely desirable and very collectible, it would be a worthy addition to any collection of James Bond movie memorabilia.
For price comparison, in a recent London Auction Sale an example of this exact same poster sold for in excess of £2,000
Trivia: The casting of Frederick Warder and Glyn Baker as 004 and 002 was intentional, due to their resemblance to George Lazenby and Sir Roger Moore, respectively. For the movie’s opening scene, the writers wanted to toy with the audience’s expectations of which of the 00 agents was Bond.

1987 was the end of a historic movie tradition as Brian Bysouth produced the last artist drawn painted James Bond film poster (Fascinating Brian Bysouth interview with Eddie Shannon of Film on Paper) for Timothy Dalton’s 007 debut as “The most dangerous Bond…Ever” in “The Living Daylights”. Bysouth has used the classic image of Bond viewed through the end of a gun barrel to fine effect and further embellished the finished design with great action scenes and marvellous renditions of the latest Bond-girl, Maryam d’Abo and of course the classic Aston Martin (in this case a V8 Vantage Volante). The original 1987 UK (country of origin) quad movie poster offered here is presented in high grade unrestored, rolled (as issued) condition and perfectly suited to the landscape style for which it was designed for. Colours are bright and unfaded, the black background a deep black and the white areas truly bright. Hugely desirable and very collectable, it would be a worthy addition to any collection of James Bond cinematic movie memorabilia.
Trivia: This was the last James Bond film to use an original Ian Fleming title until Casino Royale (2006), a gap of almost twenty years.

It’s a hard act to follow but artist Mark Murphy certainly comes very, very close with this stunning alternative movie poster from 2023. The action-packed artwork features all the classic imagery you’d expect to see in a Bond film, 007 dressed in a tuxedo, exotic location, gadgets, a beautiful, glamorous woman – Maryam D’Arbo and a life threatening scenario. The colours are truly amazing, super strong and vibrant. This limited edition fine art print represents an impressive piece of very collectable James Bond movie memorabilia that would be a worthy addition to any collection of cinematic movie memorabilia.

“You Only Live Twice…and “TWICE” is the only way to live!”
A series of three main general release poster designs were commissioned to promote Sean Connery’s fifth outing as 007 “You Only Live Twice” (1967) with artwork by both Robert McGinnis and Frank McCarthy used. Of the three different styles produced for the film, the “Style-C”– ‘Bath-Tub’ is the most difficult poster to find. Whereas “action” is the key selling point of the two Frank McCarthy designs, McGinnis focuses on Bond’s sex appeal with his poster design with risqué artwork featuring a Japanese ‘geisha’ girl with her hand washing below the waterline near to Bond’s groin area. The original 1967 Style C British UK quad movie poster offered here is presented in amazing unrestored, folded (as issued) condition and perfectly suited to the landscape style for which it McGinnis designed it for. Colours are strong and vibrant with the white background totally unfaded and bright. A true first release stating ‘Sean Connery IS James Bond’ – Connery was by now increasingly concerned of being typecast and insisted on this tagline to be changed to read AS instead of IS, with the later printings either having a glued snipe or reprinted AS. Measuring 30″ x 40″, NOT one of the slightly over-sized 31″ x 41″ posters that were printed a little bit later and used largely for provincial cinemas. Hugely desirable and very collectable, it would be a worthy addition to any collection of James Bond movie memorabilia and is a truly impressive 007 poster.
Trivia: This marks the fifth and final on-screen appearance together of Sir Sean Connery and Lois Maxwell. In Diamonds Are Forever (1971), the scene where the disguised Moneypenny gives Bond his travel documents at the port of Dover, Maxwell and Connery filmed their lines separately, and were not present together for the short scene.
