If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is an incredibly rare poster. It is a special poster that was printed in two sections (designed to overlap) with no text (except for tiny printer information at the bottom) that was printed to be used at the premiere of the movie in Paris in September 1967. Our consignor is related to the person who printed the posters, and he inherited two examples of this poster from this relative, who had saved it from the time he printed it! We auctioned one of those examples in 2014, and it auctioned for $2,300 (we only know of one other example of this poster, which auctioned in London in 2008 for around $10,000). Our consignor had intended to keep the other example, but circumstances have caused him to offer it at auction at this time. Other than the three examples we reference here (the one that sold in auction in London, the one we auctioned in 2014, and this current one), we know of no other examples of this poster, which some Bond experts consider to be perhaps the most rare and most desirable Bond poster there is! Condition: very good to fine. Each section of the poster has very minor fold and border wear, but overall, it is in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
