This desirable poster from the first James Bond film was folded with border and edge wear and general fold and crossfold wear. It was professionally backed onto cardstock with expert restoration that includes touch-up along the folds and crossfolds. There is airbrushing to the borders, in the white background of the lower credits box, around the images of the three women, and to the left of Bond's image around the text. This example presents beautifully and the horizontal format is enhanced by the image of 007's famous firearm.

The first James Bond movie (based on the sixth book in writer Ian Fleming's series) made a star of Sean Connery, who remains widely viewed as the best-ever 007. It also gave Ursula Andress, as shell diver Honey Ryder, one of cinema's most memorable entrances.
