  James Bond: From Russia With Love

  £95.00

  “To those unlucky few who missed “DR. NO”…You are unprepared for the sophisticated mayhem and the polished lovemaking. The James Bond bug has not bitten you. But take heart! There is still time to jump on the Bond bandwagon with the second James Bond adventure…FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE. See it and we guarantee – you will be hooked for good !”

  One for the true Bond collectors and those who appreciate movie posters as an art form. An original Italian locandina film poster design for 007’s second screen outing “From Russia With Love”. The artwork of Eric Pulford and Renato Fratini was adapted for this 1970s Italian re-release with Pulford’s now classic Sean Connery, Bond pose showing how well it has aged. Connery (as Bond) is surrounded by key female characters and action scenes from the movie including a beautiful illustration of actress Daniela Bianchi (Tatiana Romanova). With minimal handling wear this unrestored originally folded (as issued) example presents to very good effect and looks quite stunning, with vibrant bright unfaded colours and crisp white paper. It doesn’t get much better than this and represents an eye-catching piece of James Bond memorabilia.

  Trivia: Although he had his reservations about the choice of Sir Sean Connery for the part of James Bond, after seeing him in this movie, Ian Fleming was completely won over by the actor. In fact, as a result, Fleming added a Scottish ancestry to Bond’s character in later novels.

  James Bond: Thunderball

  £295.00

  “Bond drives an Aston…naturally”

  In 1965, Aston Martin released this tie-in advertisement poster featuring Bond’s DB5 in their dealer showrooms to promote their association with the James Bond franchise and the latest release “Thunderball”, at the time the highest grossing film series on record. Original, 1965 are extremely scarce and in some cases prohibitively expensive, but in 1999 Bond Producer’s EON authorised a limited edition licenced print run of only 400 posters. They were printed to approximately the same size as the originals (British double crown size – 20″ x 30″) and are identifiable by the unique limited edition hand written number on each one – in this case 384/400. Presented rolled in excellent condition this is hugely desirable and very collectable and would be a worthy addition to any collection of James Bond movie memorabilia and is a truly impressive 007 poster.

  Trivia: On October 27, 2010, the Aston Martin DB5 used in this movie and Goldfinger (1964) was sold, fully “loaded”, to American classic car collector Harry Yeaggy for a reported $4 million by London’s RM Auctions. The car had only one previous private owner, an American radio station owner named Jerry Lee, who purchased the car directly from the Aston Martin factory in 1969 for $12,000. Lee had kept the car at his Pennsylvania house for over forty years.
