Original, vintage 1973 US one-sheet film poster for Ian Fleming's Live and Let Die, the 1973 Guy Hamilton James Bond 007 secret agent spy espionage fantasy action adventure thriller (based on the novel by Ian Fleming; featuring the title song written by Paul McCartney & Linda McCartney, and performed by Wings) starring Roger Moore ("as James Bond"), Yaphet Kotto, Jane Seymour (as Solitaire), Clifton James (as Sheriff J.W. Pepper), Julius Harris (as Tee Hee the henchman), Geoffrey Holder (as Baron Samedi), Gloria Hendry (as Rosie), David Hedison (as Felix Leiter), and Madeline Smith (as Miss Caruso).
Poster Artist: Robert McGinnis
Important Extra Info: Note that this one-sheet was marked "WEST HEMI” (see bottom border of the poster), which means that it was printed for use in one half of the world (there were also posters stamped "EAST HEMI" for use in the other half of the world). THIS WAS DUE TO THE TWO PRODUCERS (Harry Saltzman and Albert Broccoli) BEING UNABLE TO AGREE ON WHO SHOULD GET FIRST BILLING. They resolved this by having posters for half of the world having one of their names first, and on the other half of the world, they reversed it! So this “WEST HEMI” poster has Broccoli’s name first.
This is a genuine, original US One-sheet film poster in Very Good condition, linen-backed and restored by Flicks Film Posters in 2024.

POSTER CONDITION & GRADING
Very Good. Linen-backed, restored and framed by Flicks Film Posters in 2024. Prior to linen-backing and restoration the poster was in Good condition. The poster had scuffs, stains and seven small pieces of clear tape on the reverse that had presumably been used to strengthen fold intersections and tears. We carefully removed all the tape before linen-backing and carried out repairs and restoration to the fold lines and areas of minor surface paper loss. The poster now displays really well, although you can still see faint signs of the previous flaws and the restoration of those flaws.
