German Paperback Art
Cover artwork for the German paperback "007 James Bond und der stumme Zeuge" (Loosely translated "James Bond and the silent witness") published by Super Krimi in 1978. It includes the short stories Octopussy (Der Stumme Zeuge), For Your Eyes Only (Für Sie Persönlich), Risico (Riskante Geschäfte) and The Property of a Lady (Globus - Meistbietend zu Versteigern). Kind of an odd mix of Ian Fleming's short stories. The same artwork was used in the 1975 comic version of Moonraker in Denmark.
Does anyone know who the artists is?
Thanks to Dan for sharing this!

OHMSS Artwork from Italy
"On Her Majesty's Secret Service": Comparison of the original artwork by Yves Thos (right) and the repainted version attributed to Otello Mauro - Maro - Innocenti (left) for the Italian advance poster campaign. I always thought that the poster used the original figure by Thos with just the ski mask added but the whole figure is repainted. Check the glass for example.
