  James Bond: Diamonds Are Forever – “Una Cascata Di Diamanti”

  £325.00

  “Diamonds Are Forever”…forever…forever…forever…”

  “Diamonds Are Forever” – “Una Cascata Di Diamanti” Italian one-panel film poster, presented in totally original unrestored condition. An absolutely beautiful 1971 original movie poster for Sean Connery’s final (official) outing as Ian Fleming’s super-spy James Bond 007 in Guy Hamilton’s “Diamonds Are Forever”. Robert McGinnis was commissioned to provide the initial imagery and (in my opinion) created one of the finest Bond posters ever with Italian artist Mario de Berardinis adding his own personal touches to the finished artwork. His detailed and stylish illustrations perfectly capture the whole ‘action, adventure, glamour’ Bond  theme; pretty much the ‘perfect’ 007 poster as Bond travels the globe from Amsterdam to the casinos and neon lights of Las Vegas. Incredibly hard to source in this high grade condition with stunning deep rich colours, this originally folded (as issued example presents and displays to excellent effect and represents a fine example of a scarce and extremely collectable James Bond vintage movie poster.

  Trivia: Sir Sean Connery made the most of his time on-location in Las Vegas: “I didn’t get any sleep at all. We shot every night, I caught all the shows and played golf all day. On the weekend I collapsed, boy, did I collapse. Like a skull with legs.” He also played the slot machines, and once delayed a scene because he was collecting his winnings.
