SIGNED BY ROGER MOORE.


This poster was printed in two sizes. This larger size poster is the rarer of the two.


It is rare for anyone to have an original poster signed, as the majority of signatures are on pieces of paper, photographs and video/DVD sleeves. It is unusual to have the film's poster with you when you try to obtain signatures.


This was the tenth of the James Bond films produced by Eon Productions, and the third starring Roger Moore. It was directed by Lewis Gilbert and also stars Barbara Bach, Curt Jürgens, and Richard Kiel in the memorable role of Jaws. It captured the imagination of everyone who saw it, with Bond's famous Lotus Esprit which converts into a submarine.

The owner of this poster was SVP of the company responsible for all the 007 global licensing, etc. from The World is Not Enough to Skyfall. He acquired the signature in 2005.
