You Only Live Twice (Bath) - Original Movie Poster

Original Movie Poster - You Only Live Twice (Bath)

Of the three design variants of British quad that were used for the first release of You Only Live Twice, the 'bath' style was by far the rarest. This fact, and the somewhat risqué artwork (featuring a Japanese girl with her hand washing below the waterline) makes this poster a favourite with the true Bond aficionados. From the first release in 1967, rolled in excellent condition with just a little repaired edge wear on the right hand side. Many of these were cropped oversize to 41"x31" but this particular copy was trimmed to 41"x28.5", probably for use on the London Underground system which routinely used this size at that time. N.B. Only white paper was cropped with no loss of text or artwork.
