All of the cards present very well having a nice matt finish and as a classy little touch the lettering is in gold….RARE INVESTMENT EXAMPLE of James Bond movie memorabilia as complete large sets of these lobby cards are extremely scarce…”My name is Pussy Galore…I must be dreaming”

“Here’s my Penfold Hearts. You must have played the wrong ball somewhere on the 18th fairway. We are playing strict rules Goldfinger, so I’m afraid you lose the hole and the match”…GOLDFINGER was everything that James Bond, action movies and escapism in general ever could amount to. Dated it may be, laughable back-projections yes! outrageous jump-suits and hair-styles….but still no one has come up with a better Bond film. Much of the credit for this fantastic film must go to the (then) new Bond Director Guy Hamilton, who ushered-in here an acknowledgment that Bond must grow and develop as a character and the ability to be able to send both himself and the series up via some smart dialog. How they ever managed to get away with the name “Pussy Galore” on screen, still staggers me!…The gadgets hit a new high with this third outing which at the box office that year blew most everything else off the screen. At the London cinema premiere, they had the famous Aston Martin actually there in the foyer…and you people think the latest Tom Tom ? Garmin sat nav has some meaning?…guys! Its taken them fifty years to make publically available the satellite tracking system used here. That’s how far ahead of its time it was!…Was this packed with memorable dialog too? “This is GOLD Mr Bond!” “Lovely sport!” “Oh, he had a pressing engagement,” “You don’t look like the sort of girl should be ditched!” and the quintessential “I never joke about my work 007” Gert Frobe’s villainous Goldfinger has never been improved upon and Harold Sakata’s bad-guy Oddjob simply never equalled…Goldfinger had everything. It stands as perhaps THE icon of 60’s movie-making and for those lucky enough to have been around then, it remains the most beloved of nostalgic revisitations. Visa No. 1530

Used for larger advertising spaces, normally posted on walls, perfect for huge movie theatres the drive-in, where people could see them from a distance. From the 1970’s on, three-sheets were sometimes printed in one piece and issued as “international” versions to be used abroad.
