Lowry did a good job on most of the Sean Connery films, but they clearly were not given the time and resources needed to do the best job for all (then) 22 Bond films. That’s not their fault and I wouldn’t blame the restorers, the blame lies solely with the distributor, MGM (and EON if they had input), for deciding to do a rushed job. Also the US Kodak prints probably looked a bit different to the UK Fuji prints.
