Dr. No (United Artists, 1962). British Quad (30
<B>Dr. No (United Artists, 1962).</B></I> British Quad (30" X 40"). When Ian Fleming wrote his first James Bond novel, <I>Casino Royale</B></I>, in 1953, he could little have predicted that his suave spy would quickly become one of the most exciting fictional characters ever brought to the silver screen. The initial Bond film, <I>Dr. No</B></I>, was exciting, glamorous, and fast-paced, and set the style for every Bond film to come over the ensuing decades. Sean Connery stars as 007, British secret service agent with a license to kill, with Joseph Wiseman as Dr. Julius No, the first evil mastermind to cross paths with Bond, and Ursula Andress as Honey Rider, who set the bar for every beautiful Bond girl to follow. This rare country-of-origin quad, before restoration, had pinholes in the corners, some edge wear and fold wear, and a stain on the back that bled through slightly to the front. Restoration has rendered the poster near mint in appearance. This is an attractive and very desirable piece, a rare and collectible find from this important film. Very Fine on Paper. <BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Rolled Material (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
