Even the poorest entries in the Roger Moore series of James Bond movies had excellent posters. I am not a big fan of the movie TMWTGG (bad production values), but I love the UK Quad poster.

The US One Sheet tied TMWTGG into the rest of the series invoking the memory of previous villains.

Yep, I agree.
Maybe that girl on the right was used for that Brazilian For Your Eyes Only poster.
Makes you wonder why some people got so upset by the FYEO legs posters.

In Italy they used some publicity stills in their poster.

I like this one too, it looks Bob Peak-ish.Originally posted by DLibrasnow

Notice that Rosa's last name only has one "B" and Oddjob is two words.

The US Teaser poster took a rather unique approach featuring the golden gun as its focal point (and answering those questions about precisely how the gun is put together).

I really like the promotional campaign that was put together for TMWTGG.
The incorrect spelling for Rosa Klebb is just more proof that they need Bond fans to look over these things.

I agree that the art looks very much like Bob Peak's work but I believe it was painted by Robert McGinnis but have never been able to prove this. It was really an early concept for the poster that somehow got released which is why the spelling is a bit off!

I bet if we looked at all the 007 Poster.. we would see more cut & pasting going on
well I know they did that for some of the early sean posters..
but we should check them all out

For an early concept it is pretty cool.
