That's from a US artist called Corey Holmes. Info about the poster is here:
http://coreyholms.com/portfolio/project.php?id=72 His work is very similar to the UK's Olly Moss (and to Bass). ________________________________ From: Bruce Hershenson <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, 26 October 2013, 16:47 Subject: Re: [MOPO] It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World Style B That's cool!

The globe design on the poster does differ in that it has curved horizontal lines, whereas on Bass' title sequence (and press ad) it has straight lines. It also looks a bit too "cleaned up" overall. However, since the motif is so blatantly similar, along with a fairly characteristic red background, and an Advise-&-Consent-style disembodied hand/briefcase, and since Bass also worked on the press campaign, it's hard to believe he would have let the studio get away with it without some input. After all, he must have had considerable clout by then. Unless they paid him off, or the contract was loose enough to allow it. >> >>It's an interesting one to be sure.
