Sold for £225
(including buyers premium)
A rare large-format period monochrome publicity photograph, depicting Andress behind the scenes of ‘Dr No’ - Andress famously emerges from the sea in the same white bikini - this has been cited amongst the greatest moments in film and one of its most erotic; in a 2003 UK Survey by Channel 4, it was voted number one in "the 100 Greatest Sexy Moments" of cinema. The lower part of the bikini features a wide white British Army belt with brass buckles and fittings, and a scabbard on the left side to hold a large knife. The actual bikini was sold by Christie's auctioneers for £35,000 in 2001.
Approximately 21x25cm and offered in very good original condition, hand-signed clearly in black ink by Andress and numbered ‘30A’ by the press department.
All successful bids must be paid in full by midday the day after the auction at the latest.
