John McLusky was the original artist for Ian Fleming's James Bond - drawing the first face the world ever saw of Bond, which led to Sean Connery being cast. McLusky illustrated the comic strips in the Daily Express which popularised Bond in America - if it wasn't for these drawings, the James Bond films may never have been made.
John McLusky illustrated the most legendary Bond stories which can be seen in his drawings below:
Casino Royale
Live and Let Die
Moonraker
Diamonds Are Forever
From Russia, with Love
Dr. No
Goldfinger
From a View to a Kill
