Bond on Bond

danjaq_0ff

After having a tip off from Donk that Bond on Bond was available, I went to my local Waterstones to pick up a copy

I just wanted to thank Bondstars (Andy) for getting me involved in the project, and to Gareth for getting me the mention

There are many pics in the book from many of AJB's top collectors -{ great collaboration.

Well done Guys -{

At 12,5 quid (thanks Amazon) this is a nice book to own, absolutely.

I'm looking forward to getting this book too...in fat there seems to be a few books coming out that are worth getting hold of.

Are you doing signings of the book danjaq_0ff ?

Bond Collectors' Weekends

Wonderful! On what page(s) are you mentioned? Looking forward.

Waterstones Exclusive: Roger Moore slipcased edition:

on 4th October Waterstones are to release an exclusive slipcased edition of Sir Roger's book signed by Sir Roger Moore KBE himself @ £35 including UK postage. A percentage of the proceeds go to UNICEF. There will be just 1000 copies.

http://www.waterstones.com/waterstonesweb/products/sir+roger+moore2c+kbe-/bond+on+bond+-+waterstones+exclusive+signed+and+slipcased/9250854/

On a personal note I would like to thank the editor for including an image I sent them of my Corgi Royal Premiere Gold Plated Lotus Esprit. Okay the image had to be heavily photoshopped as my photo was pooh but a photo acknowledgment would have been nice.

BondStars.com are doing copies that are signed by Roger Moore himself.

Got mine on order due for dispatch Mid November, so quite a wait until it actually arrives.

Mark Hazard

Have to check my local Waterstone's as I understand there are quite a few of my scans and photos included.

Received my copy of this today.

Haven't had chance to read it yet, but the choice of photos is quite a shocker.

Never mind, nice shelf filler.

I was hoping to see Maggie make an appearance, but again, no cigar.

C'est la vie.

The acknowledgement page reads like a who's who on AJB.
Shame some of photos sent to Gareth weren't used.

It's interesting that they have steered well clear of the real mccoy on the prop front. You'd be amazed (or not?) what was offered to this publication pre-production

it wouldn't surprise me one bit to be honest mate.

all in all the book is a nice read and quite humourous, quite a lot of the info is pretty well known, but like i say, makes a good read.

i'm puzzled why some items were missed out all together, especially when i know how many props were offered, and looked at by the publishers. they literally had a gold mine of rare and unique stuff, but chose to go for the generic stuff. bit of a missed opportunity.

maybe you should write your own book donk? )

maybe if it was a 'pop up' book it would appeal more to dear bondtoys?

The word 'book' would still put him off.
