JAMES BOND: YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE

40" x 60; Esquire Magazine Style
Very Fine- Rolled; Artwork by Ken Dallison and Roy Spencer
United Artists , 1967

A March 1967 issue of Esquire featured a cover devoted to James Bond and a multi-page feature, which can be seen printed on this scarce and fun promotional tie-in poster. Sketches from Ken Dallison and Roy Spencer are seen on the poster from the pages of Esquire.

Once folded, this poster is now rolled. Some slight crimps and creases fold wear, and general edge wear exists.

With a script by Roald Dahl, the fifth James Bond movie was the first to depart drastically from its Ian Fleming-penned source material. Its highlights include a hollowed-out volcano villain base (designed by Ken Adam) and Donald Pleasance's acidly delicious portrayal of SPECTRE head Ernst Stavro Blofeld.
