At the time of its release in 1979 the "Star Wars" inspired Bond movie - Moonraker, was the highest grossing 007 movie to date. Beautifully detailed Daniel Gouzee artwork (his first on a Bond film) was the highlight of the worldwide marketing campaign and this original 1979 large format Japanese B0 film poster really does look impressive with the Japanese text adding an air of sophistication and coolness to the design. Featuring a suave Roger Moore in a shiny silver space suit; a rarity on any Bond poster campaign as he was normally illustrated wearing a 'trademark' black tuxedo. Presented in unrestored, rolled (as issued) condition this displays and presents to very good effect and is particularly hard to find in this size, with this being the first time we have offered one for sale.

40.5" x 57.25" (103 x 145 cm)

Condition: Very Fine

Rolled with some nicks and tears around the border and a hard crease in the bottom left corner. A 9 cm tear on the bottom border has been repaired with tape on the reverse. Displays to spectacular effect.

Artist: Daniel Goozee
