Original United Artists One Sheet Poster (27×41) for the John Glen action thriller, THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS (1987) starring Timothy Dalton, Maryam d’Abo, and Jeroen Krabbe. Based on the 14th and last in the James Bond series of books by Ian Fleming, “Octopussy and the Living Daylights,” this was Timothy Dalton’s first appearance as the British spy. He had been considered for the part ever since Sean Connery left the role following YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE (1967). Released on the 25th anniversary of the James Bond films, Bond’s main task is to stop an evil arms dealer from starting another world war. This original one sheet poster is rolled and in very fine plus condition.

Original United Artists Complete Set of 8 Lobby Cards (11×14) for the Lewis Gilbert outer space spy adventure, MOONRAKER (1979) starring Roger Moore, Lois Chiles, Michael Lonsdale, and Richard Kiel. The fourth Bond movie to star Roger Moore, MOONRAKER was one of the liveliest of the Roger Moore outings. Bond investigates the mid-air theft of the space shuttle and uncovers a plot to commit global genocide. This was the first movie to feature the modern space shuttle, and the stunning space visuals garnered the film its only Oscar nomination for Best Visual Effects. The title song was sung for the third and last time by Shirley Bassey. It was the highest grossing Bond movie up until GOLDENEYE (1995). All eight lobby cards in this complete set are in very fine plus to near mint condition.

Original United Artists Subway Display Poster (45×60) for the Lewis Gilbert spy adventure, YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE (1967)–starring Sean Connery, Akiko Wakabayashi, and Donald Pleasence. This was the fifth in the James Bond series and had a budget of 10 million dollars, most of which was spent on fabricating the SPECTRE volcano headquarters. SPECTRE agent Blofeld (Pleasence) is set on taking control of the world by instigating World War III by literally “gobbling up” an American spacecraft and making the Americans think the Soviets did it. The British secret service devises an elaborate ploy to make everyone think Bond has been killed, but the resurrected hero secretly makes his way to the SPECTRE headquarters disguised as a peasant fisherman. Aided by Ninja soldiers, Bond accomplishes his task and once again saves the world from disaster. This 45 x 60 inch poster was used in subway stations to announce the film. While relatively rare, these subway posters are one of the more manageable of the large posters made to promote YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE. The poster is folded and in fine plus condition. At the top border area there is one small browned spot.
