Catalogue note
A complete Japanese Warner Home Video LaserDisc edition of Dr. No, the 1962 film that launched the Eon James Bond series. The surviving OBI, insert and documented two-sided disc make this 1988 Ever Green issue a strong physical-media record even though it is a later budget-line release rather than the earliest Japanese LaserDisc edition.
Edition details
Japanese Warner Home Video Ever Green issue, catalogue NJEL-99210. Secondary Japanese catalogue evidence dates release to 25 March 1988. Physical OBI prints ¥4,950 and identifies colour, mono, approximately 110 minutes, NTSC and CLV.
Condition note
Jacket presents strongly with light handling/edge wear visible in the supplied photographs. Original OBI appears complete and bright with minor handling. Japanese insert is present and clean overall. Both recorded disc surfaces appear very clean in the supplied views with only minor handling marks visible; playback remains unverified.
Audio
English mono
Subtitles

Attribution / research note
Release date verified against a Japanese specialist retail catalogue; the physical copy is authoritative for catalogue number, format markings and printed ¥4,950 price. Playback remains unverified.
Why this object matters
The complete 1988 Ever Green package preserves Japanese reception and retail framing of Dr. No. Its later budget-line status is correctly recognised, while the OBI and insert give it stronger documentary value than a loose disc.
Evidence limits: No new physical inspection or collation was performed. Copy-specific conclusions remain limited to the retained catalogue and accession evidence.
