Hope this photo link works, otherwise I will try again.

Here's a photographic display of a selection of my From Russia with Love vintage props. There is the Q Branch bug detector screen accurate, Pan Am flight tickets, vintage British passport with Orient Express 1963 visas, postcards of the Sainte Sophia mosque and Bosphoros ferries, vintage 1963 Orient Express timetable, all overlaid on a vintage map of Istanbul.

I am opening this post up for anyone who wishes to discuss making your own props, swapping duplicates, etc

Oh yeah there's also a vintage ferry timetable booklet and original first class ferry tokens plus a photo of Connery and Bianchi.

VERY nice display...are you saying these are duplicates for trade? Are you only interested in swapping for Connery related props? I have some duplicates as well but just want to get clarification of your post.

Hi Mantis
I will be interested in all eras but depends on what is on offer. I have other props, pics to be hosted in a few days. My duplicates range and I hope to make an inventory count also.

However this thread is also for fans interested in making their own replicas...eg. based on my significant research, I can also swap detailed copies/notes/pics on props from Vesper's book of poems to real vintage Slazenger golf balls as used by Goldfinger. Pics to follow. More later once inventory counted.
