“On Her Majesty’s Secret Service”: Danish VHS cover (1986)

In 1983  Warner Home Video began releasing the James Bond 007 films on rental video (VHS) in Danmark through local distributor Metronome Video A/S.

The VHS cover below is for the first Danish rental of "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" (EON 1969) released in 1986. The front cover is adapted from Yves Thos' artwork that was utilized in  the German theatrical campaign in December 1969. The Danish theatrical poster was based on the US one sheet in which the face of the new Bond actor, George Lazenby, was obscured.

Note the slight change in the Danish title from "Agent 007 i Hendes Majestæts hemmelige tjeneste" to "James Bond 007 i Hendes Majestæts hemmelige tjeneste" as well as the misspelling of Diana Rigg in the back cover blurb.
