    James Bond: Live And Let Die

    £495.00

    “Roger M007re is James Bond”

    An absolutely beautiful fine art print by Paul Mann for Roger Moore’s debut as Ian Fleming’s super-spy James Bond 007 in Guy Hamilton’s “Live And Let Die”. Mann has been commissioned to create alternative movie posters for all the early Bond movies and after finishing with the Connery titles has now moved on to Moore’s tenure, resulting in this sold out private commission offering. It is a movie poster in every sense of the word, with Mann recreating an incredible Bond posters. His detailed and stylish illustrations perfectly capture the voodoo theme of the movie, with the Tarot card display just amazing. Add to that the famous boat chase / jump sequence, the alligator farm, the enigmatic Solitaire (Jane Seymour), the villainous Baron Samedi (Geoffrey Holder) and you have a ‘perfect’ 007 poster. The use of the familiar title lettering and incorporating the “007” reference is worked into Roger Moore’s name and a dagger is also cleverly inserted into the “I” of the title script “DIE” adds a nice touch to Mann’s reworked artwork. Incredibly scarce, this one-sheet style (portrait) hand-numbered (#81/145) piece is offered as originally supplied, flat and unfolded (as issued). Printed on Fabriano Tiepolo Specialist Paper using 10 coloured inks it presents and displays to excellent effect with vibrant colours. A stunning item that represents a fine example of extremely collectable James Bond memorabilia.

    Trivia: The producers offered Clint Eastwood the role of James Bond, fresh from his success with Dirty Harry (1971). He was flattered, but declined, saying that Bond should be played by an English actor. Notably, Bond uses a Smith & Wesson .44 Magnum in this film, the gun made hugely popular by the Dirty Harry film franchise.

  • James Bond: The Spy Who Loved Me Alternative Movie Poster

    James Bond: The Spy Who Loved Me

    £275.00

    “…maybe I misjudged Stromberg. Any man who drinks Dom Perignon ’52 can’t be all bad.”

    A magnificent alternative movie poster for Lewis Gilbert’s 1977 James Bond extravaganza…“The Spy Who Loved Me”…Cubby Broccoli wanted this to be “BIGGEST Bond of All” and it certainly lived up to the billing, utilising the massive purpose built 007 soundstage at Pinewood Studios, still very much in use today. The action-packed artwork by artist Alfons Kiefer features all the classic imagery you’d expect to see in a Bond film, 007 (Roger Moore) dressed in a tuxedo, exotic location, gadgets, psychotic villains and beautiful, glamorous women – Barbara Bach who played the Russian super spy Anya Amasova (Agent XXX) and Caroline Munro (the helicopter pilot Naomi). This thirteen-colour screenprint is presented on Fedrigoni Materica Gesso paper and is hand-numbered #52/85. This amazing limited edition art print represents a fine piece of very collectable James Bond movie memorabilia.

    Trivia: The closing credits say, “James Bond will return in For Your Eyes Only (1981)” but, because of the successes of Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope (1977) and Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), the space set Moonraker (1979) was chosen.

  • James Bond: Thunderball Alternative Movie Poster

    James Bond: Thunderball

    £325.00

    “Look Up ! Look Down ! Look Out ! Here Comes The Biggest Bond Of All !”

    Sean Connery’s fourth appearance as James Bond is celebrated in this officially licensed, 007 Spy Guise, fan-club-commissioned edition of the classic “Thunderball” quad artwork. The explosive panoramic design combines Robert McGinnis’ sophisticated character illustration with Frank McCarthy’s dynamic action imagery, creating one of the most recognisable alternative campaigns in the history of 007.

    Bond takes centre stage with his jet pack and Walther PPK, surrounded by underwater combat, sharks, the Disco Volante and glamorous figures from Terence Young’s spectacular 1965 adventure. Bold slogans including “Look Up! Look Down! Look Out!” and “James Bond Does It Everywhere!” perfectly capture the film’s confident humour, exotic danger and large-scale spectacle. In homage to the original 1965 UK quad design this example includes the misspelt name of Jack Whittingham.

    Issued under licence in 1995, with most posters remaining in the hands of Bond collectors this, rare to market example is hand-numbered #4026 from a limited edition of 5,000. Presented rolled and remaining in superb condition, its wide cinematic composition and celebrated artwork give it tremendous visual impact, making it an exceptional display piece for collectors of Sean Connery, James Bond and classic illustrated film advertising.

    Trivia: The dictionary definition of the word “Thunderball” is, it was a military term used by U.S. soldiers to describe the mushroom cloud seen during the testing of atomic bombs. Hence its use as a title, because this would be the result of S.P.E.C.T.R.E. detonating the stolen atomic bombs.

    “And what did you say the name of this shark is ?…It’s a carcaradon carcharias…It’s a Great White.”

    “Jaws” is probably the most important film of ‘modern’ cinema, launching a movie trend that is now commonly referred to as the ‘Summer Blockbuster’. It also happens to have some of the most incredible and memorable series of scenes of any movie. These scenes are largely mapped out beforehand using illustrated storyboards. For “Jaws” the storyboards were created by the multi award winner production designer – Joe Alves. The storyboard offered here is an exact replica of the one used in production featuring a scene from the climax of the film as the great white launches itself at the stern of the boat. Printed on off-white colour cardstock paper, Alves himself has added a coloured, hand-drawn shark illustration, hand-lettered “JAWS” and has personally-signed it with shark Remarque added to his signature. Each of these are unique with none of Alves’ personal annotations and illustrations the same. Originally rolled, flat and unfolded (as issued) this example displays to exceptional effect. Extremely rare, represents an impressive item of highly sought after modern cinematic memorabilia…“You’re gonna need a bigger boat !”

A truly outstanding art print that represents a key item of highly sought after modern cinematic memorabilia…“You’re gonna need a bigger boat !”

    What is Giclee ?

    Derived from the French term gicler – meaning ‘to squirt or spray’, the term describes a printing process whereby microscopic dots of pigment-based ink are sprayed onto archival-quality paper to ensure the fidelity of a limited edition print to an original artwork.

    The richness, accuracy and depth of colour is thanks to the method’s potential to achieve a huge colour gamut (the spectrum of colours distinguishable by the human eye). Unlike the four tones used in lithography, giclées often use five: light cyan, cyan, light magenta, yellow and black.

    Fantastic for reproductions which require maximum detail, giclées are most commonly found on watercolour paper or canvas, but can also be created on glass. Different types of paper will produce different effects. Matte paper works well behind glass due its lack of reflectivity, whilst the shine of a glossy finish can give an artwork a brighter appearance.
