Description
THUNDERBALL. Robert E. McGinnis and Frank McCarthy 1965.
Six Sheet poster, linen backed, unframed: 81 x 81 in. (206 x 206 cm).
This US six sheet was printed in four sheets, and the only way that it could be displayed was to be pasted onto billboards. Therefore only unused examples survived. Far fewer of this size poster were printed.
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).
