# CASINO ROYALE (1954) RESTORED EDIT

The Television adaptation of The first James Bond Novel, made as part of the Anthology TV Series “CLIMAX!”. Here is a restored edit I created, using the high quality release from MGM and a low quality release of some kind that contains the complete concluding half of the episode. Complete with The Host Outro and Credits.

Not offered here: it is made from Casino Royale, Ian Fleming's novel of 1953, which is still protected here: its US copyright was renewed on 7 December 1981 (U.S. Copyright Office, renewal registration in its database (as transcribed in the NYPL's CCE renewals dataset), RE108490), so it is protected in the United States until the end of 2048 (17 U.S.C. §304(b)). Showing the film shows the work's expression in it (Stewart v. Abend, 495 U.S. 207, 223 (1990)), so it is held here while the work is protected; unclear is not offered.
