JAMES BOND: THUNDERBALL

30" x 40"
Fine Rolled; Artwork by Frank McCarthy and Robert McGinnis
United Artists, 1965

Slightly larger than the one sheet, 30" x 40" posters were produced in much smaller quantities; this poster is no exception. This auction also includes the 30" x 40" for Dr. No and Goldfinger. None of the posters was folded, making them more desirable and certainly more scarce than the one sheet.

Some crimping extends from the edge on the left side of the poster, and there is some edge wear along the top.

The fourth Sean Connery Bond film pitted 007 against SPECTRE Number Two Emilio Largo (Adolfo Celi) and was initially intended to be the first. However, it was delayed due to a rights dispute over the novel, eventually resulting in 1983's rival Bond film Never Say Never Again.

This lot will be auctioned on Thursday, April 18th. The auction will begin at 9:30am PST and lots are sold sequentially via live auctioneer; tune in to the live streaming broadcast on auction day to follow the pace. Note other lots in the auction may close on April 19th.
