One Sheet (27" x 41"); Style C ; The Richard Schenkman Collection
Fine+ Tri-Folded; Artwork by Frank McCarthy and Robert McGinnis
United Artists, 1967
James Bond bathes with a group of beautiful women on this "Style C" one sheet, which is tri-folded and displays border wear with pinholes, corner chips, and intermittent creases. The ends of the folds were stabilized on the back with cellophane tape. While this example is folded, it will be shipped rolled in a sturdy tube.
"You Only Live Twice" is the fifth James Bond film, directed by Lewis Gilbert with a screenplay by Roald Dahl, loosely based on Ian Fleming's novel. Largely abandoning the book's plot, it features an original story and massive volcano set visible from three miles away. The film was well received and grossed over $111 million worldwide-roughly $1 billion in 2024 dollars.
Estimate: $600 - 1,200
