A staple of the James Bond franchise is the lovely leading ladies who often complicate Mr. Bond’s life, and Michael Gillettes has rendered each seductive supporting character in this amazing poster series. Coming in an assortment of colors, typography and girls, fans of the international spy and art in general will find these creations irresistible, which is why they were recently used as the new covers for Ian Fleming’s books.
Demand for these Michael Gillettes renderings became so great that he’s now selling prints of his posters. Gillette personally signs every limited edition print, and each individual poster retails for $95, or $1200 for the entire set of 15. With such diverse and beautiful artwork to immortalize James Bond’s most memorable characters, it extremely difficult for me not to empty my wallet.
