From Russia With Love - Original Art

Original art for "From Russia With Love" by Averardo Ciriello, 45 x 63 cm. Used for the Italian posters. From the collection of Thomas Nixdorf. Check out his Facebook page for a detailed view.

And now for something completely different...

"The Spy Who Loved Me" hand painted art on sack cloth for touring cinemas in Ghana, roughly 1980s, (left), Polish poster (middle), artwork from Italian record cover (right) for camparison.

This is the most unusual approach for 007 advertisding that I've seen so far. I thought that some Polish posters used an unusal approach but the flying fish is something else. The Ghana poster found here.
