Italian lobby cards called photobusta for "Licenza Di Uccidere" (Dr No). Original set of 10 on the top, reissue set of 8 (red and blue variation) on the bottom.

Dr No: German Lobby Cards

German lobby cards called "Aushangphotos" for "James Bond 007 jagt Dr No" (Dr No). These original lobby cards are individually hand-coloured b/w photos on heavy paper. Each lobby card is numbered and approved by the "FSK" - the German Rating Board. Some photos were not approved (15, 17 and presumably 30) due to their suggestive content. The whole set was reissued with an updated United Artists logo.

Thanks to Thomas Nixdorf for card 17, Lee and Dave from Cinema Retro for their Dr No Movie Classics magazine (Cards 15 and 30) and Thomas Wehlmann for his help clarifying the correct numbering.

European Dr No Poster Overview

European posters for "Dr No". I find the variety of artwork created for the first Jamers Bond 007 movie fascinating. Also how the art and design evolved from inital release to re-release.
Although some posters look identical (Like the Italian and German posters) they all have differences. So far I found 3 variations of the original Italian Large release poster with variations in colour (Connery's face), Dear Bell logo and position of the text.
