Hey Harry,

No, it doesn't. It looks quite different.
I might dig that one out on Friday as you haven't seen it before and get that photograph done and dusted.

That's a nice example of the TSWLM Seiko quad. Nice one!

You have the Thunderball VOIT programme, don't you??

Adam

Thanks, it is almost a tri-fold! I just collect posters... no rare Bond ephemera like Voit tie-ins for me. I look forward to that YOLT advance.

This is Christie's picture cleaned up:

Folks, I am not entirely sure about the Russia quad being a teaser. I am aware there is a school of thought that says it is a poster variation for Leicester square.

But, perhaps I am wrong.

Here's the other one sold at Christie's. Looks like the "Stowaway" ad has been taped onto the bottom.

Both were described as "advance" posters.

Simes · « **Reply #255 on:** February 08, 2011, 07:47:34 AM »

Indeed, and I accept I could be wrong.

But Tony Nourmand described all sorts of stuff in his Bond Poster book which was blatantly wrong. Lobby cards as quads and vice versa ...

Just a query.

agentprovocateur · « **Reply #256 on:** February 08, 2011, 08:24:17 AM »

Not sure if this counts... have had this for quite a while now, just need a bit of room to hang it!

Weirdly the instructions show a different version!

* Edit: was a bit of an idiot earlier, when rolling the banner back up the instructions image was on the other side!

A close up of Christmas...

And one of the other panels...

Simes..are there any weblinks i can read thru,just to get a better idea of why this poster indicates a Leicester Square release ?
Was there a seperate release for General exhibition?

No weblinks I know of - this was just after talking to the guys at Cineart Gallery.

Longdog was a resident knowledge there.

agentprovocateur · « **Reply #260 on:** February 08, 2011, 01:24:03 PM »

Wow, what happened to the Cineart Gallery? Bought a few things from there, nice guys, but heard on the grapevine there was a bit of a falling out!?

paul waines · « **Reply #261 on:** February 08, 2011, 03:26:58 PM »

Just a couple of Trade Ads, as we all seem to be in Bond mode.

Though this one could help with regards, date. This double bill was released on 28th June 1968. How much more accurate do you need. Trade Ads and pressbooks, a mine of info.

I may have miss judged Tim Dalton... No, He's still my least favourite Bond.

AdamCarterJones · « **Reply #262 on:** February 08, 2011, 05:57:07 PM »

Cool stuff, Paul.
Updated the info - thanks for the date!

Adam

Just been delving to the bottom of my Quad draw and found this, as usual a bit boring compared to what's been posted before!

longdog · « **Reply #264 on:** February 10, 2011, 02:24:18 PM »

Hardly boring, in fact (or in my humble opinion) it's quite a striking image and completely walks over the Style B (Speed 2

) advance with Brosnan & Berry.

If I recall there was some speculation that there was an image apparently hidden within the ice but I never found it. The other interesting fact is the creative team used the wrong gun (a Beretta instead of the Walther) which caused a minor uproar amongst the purists at the time.

Paul.

Images from the Italian poster for Casino Royale posted by AgentP:

Thrown into a quickie one sheet - not 100% happy with it but still pretty cool....

AdamCarterJones · « **Reply #266 on:** February 12, 2011, 07:34:49 AM »

Hi guys,

I may not get any images uploaded here today as I took over 150 photographs yesterday.
And I still have over 30 images to sort from last week.

The way I had my posters stored were in order of film, with Casino Royale '67 and Never Say Never Again along with double bills etc coming last.
I have photographed the following (that were stored flat):
Double bills etc.
Casino Royale '67.
Never Say Never Again.
Casino Royale '06.
Quantum of Solace.
Die Another Day.
The World Is Not Enough.
Tomorrow Never Dies.
GoldenEye.

Harry, sorry I never got to take a photograph of the YOLT Advance.
I'll get to it as soon as I can, mate.

Best,
Adam

Simes · « **Reply #267 on:** February 12, 2011, 08:23:07 AM »

Thanks for the update - all sounds very interesting.

Once I see what I have that you don't (and I cannot think what that might be with your having three versions of a Mr teaser poster), I will happily provide to the cause.

Cheers.

Harry Caul · « **Reply #268 on:** February 12, 2011, 08:24:23 AM »

No sweat. I'm just curious about some of the rarer quads as I just (stupidly) started a quad collection. I'm actually well on my way with the regular posters (minus the Connerys), but I'm sure it would take a lifetime to track down all the double bills, teasers/advances, glossy/matte variants, special posters, Marler Haley's, Seiko/other promotional posters, etc... Craziness! What was I thinking starting this now?

And that doesn't even include the non-quad ephemera! 1-sheets, double crowns, foreign posters, Handbills, tie-in advertising posters, and on and on...

Simes · « **Reply #269 on:** February 12, 2011, 09:18:23 AM »

Yes. I agree.

Looking at Adam's site, even I wasn't aware of all the variants of 1 sheets. I am not sure I will be going back to collect all these variants now, but I am aware that if one such variant crops up at the time of the film's release, I will probably acquire it.

For my part, I have concentrated on purely the US and UK produced material in an effort to ensure I don't go chasing off into the Indonesian jungles for some spurious version.

As for Marler Hayleys, I am interestedin these but only as a complete set of the five posters. From my own experience, I have seen portions of these presentations from Diamonds through to Living Daylights. I believe these were the only films represented by these Marlers. I personally own the full Octopussy set - as illustrated in this thread.

Would be interested to see what Adam has, as he seems to own all sorts ...

Welcome aboard Harry.

Well to be clear, I started a Bond quad collection. I have always bought the odd quad now and again, but I figured if I was going to collect Bond, there was only one way to go. Do you collect Bond as well? What sort of gems have you acquired over the years?

paul waines · « **Reply #272 on:** February 12, 2011, 01:48:35 PM »

That's how it Starts Harry

I have picked a few up over the years, I should of picked up more. My Goldfinger was £5, the most I paid was £12 for Diamonds are forever. To busy buying other things (not posters ).

Not counting Brosnan I have a quad from all bar three of the Bond movies, but I'm on the look out for a bargain price on those three.

paul waines · « **Reply #273 on:** February 12, 2011, 02:01:52 PM »

Quads are so the right format for Bond. These are the only one's I have pic's of at the moment Harry.

mahmudf · « **Reply #274 on:** February 12, 2011, 02:28:29 PM »

wonderful quads Paul, i have the same YOLT and a Dr No quad, BTW did you obtain that Eaton autograph in person?
