Octopussy and the Living Daylights -
Ian Lancaster Fleming
1966 - Jonathan Cape, London - First Edition
M looked coldly across the desk. It was going to be dirty work and Bond, because he belonged to the Double 0 section, had been chosen for it.
“You've got to kill this sniper. And you've got to kill him before he gets Agent 272. Is that understood?”
So, it was to be murder.
A fine first edition of the fourteenth and final publication by Ian Fleming in the 007 series, containing two short adventures; the title novella plus 'The Living Daylights'. These were later successfully filmed by EON productions with Bond played by Roger Moore (Octopussy, 1983) and Timothy Dalton (The Living Daylights, 1987).
Appropriately housed in a bespoke black cloth clamshell case, lined in scarlet red felt, the spine with gilt stamped lettering and target logo.

Dr. No -
Ian Lancaster Fleming
1958 - Jonathan Cape, London - First Edition, First impression, second state with dancing &lsquo
A fine first edition in fine sharp bright dust jacket, the book in the preferred second state showing the ‘Honey Chile’ silhouette which was lacking from the first state. Appropriately housed in a bespoke black cloth clamshell case, lined in scarlet red felt, the spine with gilt stamped lettering and thematic gilt stamped articulated hand of Dr. No.
Dr No, a sinister recluse with mechanical pincers for hands and a sadistic fascination with pain, holds James Bond firmly in his steely grasp. Bond and Honey Rider, his beautiful and vulnerable girl Friday, have been captured trespassing on Dr No’s secluded Caribbean island. Intent on protecting his clandestine operations from the British secret service, Dr No sees an opportunity to dispose of an enemy and further his diabolical research.
The film that introduced the world to Sean Connery. Many of the now familiar elements appeared in this first entry of the series: M, Moneypenny, Felix Leiter, Q Major Boothroyd, SPECTRE, the Walther PPK, a Casino and a Vodka Martini!
