British 16 Sheet (80" x 120"); Country-of-Origin ; The Collection of the Late J. Stephen Ryan
Very Fine+ Folded; Artwork by Dan Goozee
United Artists, 1979
Printed on four large panels and folded, this oversized British country-of-origin poster is in excellent condition and shows general fold wear and mild edge wear. Never before offered at PropStore, this "Moonraker" comes in one of the rarest formats seen in British posters, the massive sixteen sheet. The size equates to four double crowns stacked top to bottom and side to side, making Dan Goozee's famous artwork a truly impressive presentation.
"Moonraker" is the 11th James Bond film and Roger Moore's fourth outing as 007, directed by Lewis Gilbert. Co-starring Lois Chiles and Michael Lonsdale, Bond follows a missing Space Shuttle from California to Venice, Rio, the Amazon, and space to stop Hugo Drax's plan to destroy humanity. Acclaimed for its visual effects, it earned an Oscar nomination and became the highest-grossing Bond film at $210.3 million until "GoldenEye "(1995).
Estimate: $300 - 600
