Looks like you own a piece by Robert McGinnis who is most famous for doing the iconic movie posters for Breakfast At Tiffany's and the James Bond films Thunderball, You Only Live Twice, On Her Majesty's Secret Service and Diamonds are Forever. What you have is most likely a pulp paperback cover he made (he did over 1200). You should try to find out which one it is. If it is truly from Robert McGinnis, I'd guess you have quite a valuable painting.

Congratulations!
