The only example of this poster we have found!

A guaranteed original U.K. quad movie poster from 1989 for John Glen's James Bond movie, "Licence to Kill" (or depending upon your location "License to Kill").

The sixteenth of the Bond films and Timothy Dalton's second outing as 007, the movie also features Robert Davi as a powerful drug baron and Carey Lowell and Talisa Soto as female co-stars.

It was originally entitled Licence Revoked, but was renamed after feedback to test screenings in the U.S.

The only Bond film to be classified as a '15', footage had to be cut to enable a general release. Once it hit the big screen, the film took over $150M at the box office.

This fantastic single-sided movie poster was produced for use in the U.K. and we believe it is the result of a collaboration at the FEREF advertising agency by Brian Bysouth, Frank Hillary and Robin Behling.

It has never been folded and only shows a few minor signs of its use in a British cinema. As our photos show, it will look amazing framed and on the wall of any Bond fan!

We only sell guaranteed original movie posters. We do not sell reproductions.

Note: This movie poster is priced unframed. Photos showing framed and 'in room' images are for illustration only. Please check our hi-res images and the sizing information shown above.

Original Poster Buying Guide

Authenticity & Original Posters

Art of the Movies specialises exclusively in authentic original cinema posters issued for theatrical release. These are not modern reproductions or decorative reprints.

Original posters were produced in limited numbers for cinemas to promote films during their initial release. As a result, surviving examples have become highly collectible artefacts of film history.

Each poster offered on this site is an authentic vintage piece created for cinema exhibition and carefully selected for collectors and film enthusiasts.

Condition & Age

Vintage cinema posters were working promotional materials used by theatres and distributors. As such, signs of age and handling are normal and form part of their character.

Condition is carefully assessed for each poster and reflected in the description. Where relevant, notes may include details such as light handling wear, fold lines from original cinema distribution, or minor edge wear.

Any significant restoration or conservation work will always be clearly stated.

Poster Formats & Dimensions

Original cinema posters were produced in a variety of standard formats depending on the country and era of release.

Common formats include UK Quad, US One Sheet and other theatrical display sizes. Exact dimensions for each poster are provided in the product details where relevant.

These historic formats are part of the distinctive character of original film advertising.

Framing Options

Many posters can be supplied professionally framed as an optional extra.

Framing is carried out using archival-quality materials designed to protect and display vintage paper safely. Frames are prepared to complement the artwork while maintaining a clean, gallery-style presentation.

Where framing is available, it can be selected before purchase.

Packaging & Delivery

Posters are carefully packaged to ensure safe delivery.

Unframed posters are typically shipped rolled safely packaged within our extra-thick custom-made tubes. Framed pieces are securely boxed using protective materials to minimise movement during transit.

Orders are dispatched with tracking where available.
