Italian Photobusta Set (5) with Paper Sleeve (27" x 18") ; The Richard Schenkman Collection
Near Mint Rolled
United Artists, R-1970s
This beautiful group of five Italian photobustas features exciting imagery from this Bond classic and appears to be unused. Each poster is rolled in outstanding condition, with only very minor crimps from handling over time, and this set includes the original paper sleeve in which it was stored.
"Goldfinger" is considered the Bond film where the character "comes into focus," introducing hallmarks like high-tech gadgets, a standalone pre-credits sequence, multiple exotic locations, and tongue-in-cheek humor. Its release spurred popular tie-ins, including a Corgi toy Aston Martin DB5-the top-selling toy of 1964-and "Life" magazine's gold-painted image of Auric Goldfinger.
Estimate: $300 - 600
