Description

Thunderball (1965) US, Partial billboard poster


Art by Frank McCarthy (1924-2002)


Accompanied by a framed lobby card signed by Sean Connery.


Billboard Unframed: 78 1/4 x 171 3/4 in. (198.5 x 436 cm)


There are only six pieces of this partial billboard poster. The full poster would measure 103 x 228 in. (261.6 x 579.1 cm), and include a standing image of Sean Connery in scuba gear, with three Bond girls. The poster is also missing the title and credits. However, the six pieces feature artwork by Frank McCarthy of Bond's iconic underwater fight scene. The six pieces when placed together would create a substantial feature. 


This was the fourth in the James Bond series produced by Eon Productions, and starring Sean Connery. The film was directed by Terence Young, who had directed the first two Bond films. James Bond films are well known for their gadgets. This film is no exception with the introduction of Bond's Bell Rocket Belt (developed by Bell Aircraft Corporation).
