Hi Paul and Tom, I asked Ed to take a quick look at these for you and here is his response: The Goldfinger is an 1980s release. CIC closed in 1981 due to MGM buying UA and creating a contract conflict so UIP was created to replace CIC. The Dr. No and the Thunderball are both reissues. The quickest way to tell is the Transamerica logo. Transamerica bought UA in 1967. Also, the earliest Rotopress tag that we have on file is 1978. Rotopress mainly operated in the 1980s.

Hi Paul: It could very well be that the UIP Goldfinger is from the early 1980's. I have the Locandina of Dr. No and the 39" x 55" of Thunderball. I have always considered them both to be from the 1971 re-release. Could not see the printers marks on the images Dave posted. Best, --Tom Pennock In a message dated 9/18/2009 11:36:19 A.M. Eastern Daylight Time, speedys...@aol.com writes: Tom/Dave, I believe distributor UIP was only set up in late 1981, so that would make it 80s or later. In fact, checking against learnaboutmovieposters - they have it as 1983. learnaboutmovieposters also have the Dr No as 1980, because of printer Rotopress. Thunderball is also Rotopress, so guess that must be 1980-ish too (The Thunderball re-release I have is Grafitalia.)
