Dr No/From Russia With Love – Double Bill – UK Quad

A scarce country of origin UK Quad for a James Bond double-bill of Dr. No (1962) and From Russia With Love (1963). It is believed that this is the first official Bond double-bill feature which hit screens in 1965. These Quads were also printed with an alternate white background but this yellow version is far rarer. Almost all examples of this poster had snipes added by the printers over “as James Bond in” to read simply “in”. This was a result of Sean Connery’s growing concern about being type-cast and objecting to the word “as” being used. Prior to backing this poster did carry those two snipes but they have been carefully removed and restored to the original text.

Conservation linen-backed with fold line and border restoration as well as a fair amount of work to the yellows and whites. However, the restoration has been done to a very high standard and displays brilliantly. Dimensions: 76 cm x 102 cm (30″ x 40″)
