Country of origin, British UK Quad poster for the debut Sean Connery James Bond film "Dr. No" (1962). The Mitchell Hooks poster illustration establishes Bond's credentials as a suave but dangerous character, the sex appeal in the film being clearly evident. The famous "007" gun logo (so synonymous with the franchise even to present day) designed by Joseph Caroff also appears for the first time on the poster. Originally folded, this unrestored example displays and presents to excellent effect with truly vibrant colours. The bright yellow background and red lettering is often a weak point on this poster as it fades very easily, but that isn't the case here. This is one of the best examples I have had to appraise, with only single pinholes to each corner the only proof it was ever used.
