MOONRAKER (1979) rare original US 1-stop 41"x76" movie poster - JAMES BOND 007. Measures approx 41 x 77 inches. 1-stop movie poster for the 1979 film starring Roger Moore in his fourth appearance as James Bond. 1-stop' movie posters were printed in the U. And intended for international use abroad.
They are the same size as the U. 3-sheet poster, but were used in a horizontal landscape format. The 1-stop posters usually consist of two styles of the one-sheet posters, one at either end, and also eight images from the lobby card set shown inbetween. Overall condition - very good. One 6 mm tear on the upper edge. Two approx 13 mm tears on the right-hand side border which run parallel to the edge.On the fold line of the left-hand side one-sheet there is a small area of paper-loss. I would imagine that these tears somehow occurred at the manufacturing stage as the poster is in otherwise very nice condition and it seems to appear that it has not been used. The poster has an NSS stamp on the reverse which says "MOONRAKER 1 STOP ENGLISH", which indicates that it was intended for distribution to English-speaking countries. I have taken several photos so that all areas of the poster can be viewed in detail.
Please also see photos for your own appraisal of the general condition. Any questions or further photos required please ask.
All the items I send will be very carefully packaged using strong and secure posting materials. I know people are very concerned about how something they've just bought will be packaged - especially if it's valuable and rare.
I also know all too well the disappointment of receiving something damaged in the post because of lazy, cheap and shoddy packaging. So, therefore to assure my buyers that their goods will be carefully packed, I will explain in detail below how I prepare and package my items. FLAT ITEMS such as folded posters, lobby cards, press books, etc, are put into polythene sleeves and then placed between two pieces of THICK card before being sealed in a'Do Not Bend' envelope.The extra card will make this package an absolute minimum of 10 mm thick to prevent bending. ROLLED POSTERS are placed inside a sleeve of polythene tubing and then put into a 3 inch diameter tube which has strong 2.5 mm thick walls. The poster will be cushioned at both ends inside the tube with tissue paper or bubble wrap, etc, to prevent movement. The ends of the tube will be tape-sealed on the outside.
LINEN-BACKED POSTERS will be rolled in kraft paper, and then bubble-wrapped. Depending on the type of poster the tube may be anything between a 3 inch and 6 inch diameter.
All tubes will have minimum 2.5 mm thick walls. OTHER MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS such as collectable figures, props, etc, will be bubble-wrapped and cushioned with crushed paper or something similar inside a sturdy cardboard box.
ANYTHING SEALED inside any package (polythene sleeve, cardboard, bubble-wrap, etc) is done with masking tape. I find this is strong enough to seal securely, but the low stickiness of it means it is easy to remove, and therefore will not cause any damage by accidentally sticking to the item. Multiple items of the same type I. It may do at checkout, but I don't know for sure.
