A rare James Bond poster from the first 007 movie has sold for £16,900 at auction.

It was the highest-selling poster among 460 that were sold by Ewbank’s auction house in Woking, Surrey on Friday (2 Feb).
Another Bond one was from the 1965 film Thunderball - also starring the late Connery - who died aged 90 in 2020 - as the famous spy.

“Some light handling and age marks.”
A poster from a third 007 movie, You Only Live Twice, which came out in 1967 fetched £4,420.

LA STORIA DELLA CHITARRA
- I Beatles continuano a infrangere record su record. La chitarra di John Lennon è stata battuta all'asta per 2.85 milioni di dollari da Julien’s Auctions e perciò è la quinta più costosa mai venduta. Il cantante l'aveva suonata negli album Help! e Rubber Soul (entrambi del 1965) e poi regalata al musicista Gordon Waller. Il manager di quest'ultimo l'aveva presa, portata a casa e lasciata in una soffitta
