Bond on Bond Street – Sotheby’s to auction off 007 memorabilia

Famed auction house Sotheby’s will be auctioning off memorabilia of MI6’s favourite secret agent – 007. The collection of auctions titled Bond on Bond Street feature original manuscripts, posters, photographs, watches and promotional material that span 60 years across 25 films.

Get bidding on an original Live and Let Die first edition manuscript inscribed to Winston Churchill or The Spy Who Loved Me first edition inscribed to Robert Kennedy all the way to a set of four US market ‘You Only Live Twice‘ door panels.

From the vibrant colours, tailored suits and throngs of beautiful women in the early Connery films to the darker, more modern Bond represented today by Daniel Craig, the sale represents Bond’s evolution and appeal to fans across generations. 

The pieces are set to go under the hammer in two auctions; James Bond: A Collection of Books and Manuscripts, The Property of a Gentleman from 28th October to 11th November and James Bond Film Posters from 5th November to 12th November.

Car Film Posters

Ever wanted a minimalist film poster that is depicted by the car?

Moviecarposters has brought all the classic and the more recent films together with these lovely posters of the iconic vehicles.

They all measure 11.25″x17.25″, and are professionally printed on high-quality gloss paper.   But the fun of going on to their site is to see how many films you can guess from the posters. I got some straight away but there are some which I have no clue about. It’s a fun way of learning about iconic car films as every poster has a signature quote to help you guess.

 

I have my eye on the James Bond DB5 poster which would look great hanging on my wall (anyone?)

All of the posters are readily available from their website which I will give you below and the posters are very reasonably priced at $10.
