Condition: fair to good. apparently this poster was considered far too sexy for New Zealand audiences (where this poster was used). Some fanatical censor stenciled a giant black block over all of the top image, leaving only the two stars' heads! They cleverly put a cut-out "007" in the stencil (and also a "A" ratings letter), so that it wouldn't appear that they had blacked out as much image! They also created a black stencil in the middle of the poster that covered the offensive portions of the nude dead girl, and again, cleverly made the stencil so that it looks to be an intentional "3-D effect" going off of the box with Connery's face! Somebody in New Zealand had WAY WAY too much time on their hands! If the poster bothered them that much, they should have just thrown them out! Anyway, I guess some people might consider that these stencils detract greatly from this poster, but I think they are pretty cool! I guess that it is just up to the bidders to decide whether it is a major detraction or not. Other than the stencils, the poster has a 1/2" tear in the middle of the left border, several pairs of staple holes in each corner, and paper loss in the top left corner (from when the staples were roughly removed.
