There is another one for Moneypenny too, at least in digital format.

Have only seen so far the poster for Bond for sale on eBay.

Curious that the other poster (against blue walled doorway) has not been seen for sale. Wondering if in fact that exists in paper...??

Would they more likely be banner art than 1-sheets? I guess you're going to busy Simes

Well, aside from three character posters for Casino Royale (Bond, Solange, Vesper) and one character poster for Bond in Skyfall (Adam says others were printed but they never seemed to go into circulation), all character presentations were banners for Quantum, Skyfall and SPECTRE.

Thing is right now, I am not seeing anything hanging in cinemas in my area, be they posters OR banners. So, really do not know.

For No Time to Die, what have people seen available right now? Guessing just the Bond character poster...?

Let's assess what they print, and that'll tell me if I am going to be busy.

All I've seen so far are digital Character posters, maybe time to invest in a nice display?

During the Good Morning America event in Times Square people in the crowd were holding what looked like mini posters, 16x20 maybe, of the Malik, and Lashana Lynch versions. The Craig posters were the tuxedo advance. All of the different versions may have been printed and distributed to the crowd, but I didn't see the whole show. I'll check YouTube later.

Just checked what was up on YouTube. Looks like only the Malik version was printed as a mini poster. The Craig tuxedo advance was printed as both a mini poster and a large 1-sheet size poster either on boards or mounted to poster boards. The other versions were nowhere to be seen.
And as usual the interviews were next to useless, because "everything is a spoiler" today so nobody said anything of note.

It could be that it is just a question of the wrong questions being asked.

'Can you tell me what happens in the film', not being as professional as 'Have you been to Jamaica before, how did you find it during your down time?'

For example. I mean, the journos know they ain't gonna get nuttin', so why ask at all?

This one is for the rarity file and precious little else.

Made known to me via cabmanray many years ago, I have never seen one for sale and aside from the aforementioned chap, never known anyone else who owns one either.

In terrible condition; seam separation, water marks, edge creasing, paper loss and perhaps even fading, and on the most brittle and what must have been the cheapest paper made available to the military, since perhaps all other available funds were put towards tanks and K Rations, one Military From Russia with Love 1 sheet.

I currently know only of two other Bond films for which posters were 'designed' and issued to the military; Dr No and Thunderball, both of which are far more commonly known and available.

Anyway, am not sure this will elicit much in the way of discussion so perhaps this serves only to prove I am still alive and up for contributing where possible.

cabmangray · « **Reply #2086 on:** January 07, 2020, 07:43:28 PM »

Ah! See, I told you another one would turn up someday! The poster is from the 1968 - 1970 period. The GP sticker is covering the original M rating which was in effect for only a couple of years. The condition is pretty beat up; are you going to go the linen backing route or will you just leave it as it is? Congrats, in any case!

;D7

It's fun to see your rare military base Bond poster, Simes! I went to a few movies on base back in the day, though can't recall any longer if they were different. That would have been in the early 1980s. Okie

Simes · « **Reply #2088 on:** January 08, 2020, 03:51:57 AM »

I will leave it as is. No linen backing for such an item.

Indeed the only linen backing I have for the Bond posters are for the first four films' US 1 sheets. Nothing else is backed.

Cheers fellas.

Congratulations Simes. Looks like it has found the perfect home.

Simes · « **Reply #2090 on:** January 29, 2020, 06:51:41 AM »

More just to demonstrate forum contribution than to showcase 'art'.

The below. Which of course includes the 1 Sheet UK and International variants...

Although, even though these images were saved correctly rotated, they have nonetheless popped out as they were photographed. If there is a mod who can rotate, and / or tell me how to avoid such embarrassments… Cheers.

Must be about the third time Vectis have shifted this poster.

The first time was to me, in my less cognisant years. It is a real mess.

Time to put it to bed I think...

cabmangray · « **Reply #2093 on:** February 21, 2020, 10:23:35 PM »

More OO7 wrapping paper! 2 releases in one week! The IMAX poster is pretty poor; the word IMAX is bigger than to logo. The black and white (and blue for Craig's eyes

) is more interesting. This is the version from United Pictures International South Africa with complete credits. Another version (domestic?) was also released without the credits and just a "April" release date. I'm more interested in what the fan art contest will turn up.

Me too!

Curious that for the 'printed' teaser material, which in the case of the UK, extends more broadly to just vinyl banners of the character images, only Bond, Safin, Paloma and Nomi are showcased.

But in this latest material (not yet known if to be printed), it is Madeleine. And, Ana de Armas is not credited on this poster.

cabmangray · « **Reply #2095 on:** March 02, 2020, 09:01:13 PM »

Lord, will the mediocrity never end? Here is yet another sub par effort, aka some sort of promo poster. It looks like a cut and paste job of the previously released advance 1-sheets glommed together to make this. Blech!

Simes · « **Reply #2096 on:** March 03, 2020, 03:37:00 AM »

This hasn't been released on the 007 official site yet. Am wondering if this is legit.

To be sure, people have likened it to the most recent of Mission Impossible: Fallout posters.

Seems to be in good company if nothing else... $:-\$

Ah good ol' bond collectors, the only crowd that cares about 25 variations of the same poster

As the film has been pushed back 7 months, that’ll be 50 variants now! The April dated posters and now the soon to be made November dated posters?

skyjackers · « **Reply #2099 on:** March 04, 2020, 01:14:06 PM »

Looks like the Coronavirus has pushed the release date back to November. I guess that makes even more posters for Simon to collect. The April release date versions may become quite scarce.
