Add to basketSoft cover. Condition: As New. Black card wrappers, printed paper label. Edition limited to 125 numbered copies signed by the publishers, Ian Fleming's nephews Fergus Fleming (Queen Anne Press) and James Fleming (The Book Collector). Article reprinted from the Spring 2017 special issue of The Book Collector ("Ian Fleming & Book…Collecting"), in a handsome edition letterpress-printed in Monotype Fournier by Stan Lane of Gloucester Typesetting. Ian Fleming, himself a creative book collector, ran the Queen Anne Press, first publishers of The Book Collector, from 1951 to 1955, and owned the journal from 1955 until his death. Sheila Markham, veteran interviewer of booksellers and book collectors, voices two active collectors of Ian Fleming. Jeremy Miles, an ad man, vowed to own a complete set of James Bond first editions and an Aston Martin by his 50th birthday; while Michael VanBlaricum, a research engineer in defence systems analysis, hasn't stopped at books and cars but once even pursued a submarine from a Bond film, for the Ian Fleming Foundation.

perfect. Condition: Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mi…ll. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
