European Goldfinger Posters
For the slightly obsessive poster collector (like me): European poster overview of original and reissue posters for James Bond 007 - "Goldfinger". Italy wins in terms of different posters and reprints - as usual.

Searching for the Dr No Source Image
I'm searching for the the image that started it all: The photo of Sean Connery used first in the Dr No posters and was later reused in the campaign for Goldfinger. I came across the photo framed in red on the right and it looks like it could be one of them.
Does anyone have the full or more pictures of this? Thanks!

MWGG Poster Concept
Concept and final poster for "The Man With The Golden Gun" by Robert McGinnis. It appears that the concept is a reviewed version with notes and sketched alterations by the art director such as the notes for the looping car and the revised size of Nick Nack. If you look closely you can see the smaller version was covered by a larger photocopy. Thanks To Thomas and Robert for sharing!

Dr No Tribute Artwork
Artwork for an imaginary "Dr No" poster in the style of the early '60, gouache on artboard, 80x60 cm.
The project started with different sketches and colour compositions. Initally I wanted to paint Connery in a black tuxedo but a white one is suited better for the Jamaican theme.
Different stages of the painting. I've started with the faces as they are the most difficult parts to paint. Below how this might have been used.
