AM DB5 Armrest lettering

Union

I wonder if someone can help me finding which way would be the best to reproduce the stickers inside the Aston Martin DB5 central armrest (‘Oil’, ‘Nails’, ‘Smoke’, etc) I wonder if this is a simple Dymo label stamper thing, and on that case, what would the right letter font be

Looks like original Dymo tape to me - not sure there were font options with that, you got what you got!

Suggest researching Demo from when the movie was made and that may lead you to the right source.

It's exactly that. Same font throughout the years it was made.

Isn’t that the effects car console though? Not the screen used console from GF.

My version.

That’s a great one, James. What kind of Dymo and Dymo font did you use?

Gadget Meister

That one’s not Dymo, more like a modern heat transfer label.

I think that this is what you want:



There's lots of them on E-Bay - here's an example:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Dymo-S0717930-Omega-Home-Embossing-Label-Maker-Blue-Brand-New-Fast-Del/192118138289?epid=11008809974&hash=item2cbb2225b1:g:iTEAAOSw4A5YuIeA

I think the same kind of labels were used on Little Nellie - but in red and green instead of black:



And more recently they were used on the DB10 Gadgets switches in Spectre.



But as previously mentioned the Dymo wasn't used on the gadgets console as seen on screen in Goldfinger:



And they were completely different again in Thunderball:

Thank you, much appreciated

Anyone know how much the spectre gadget controls went for at auction?

I have looked in the past Jeff, can only find the first 10 'Live' auction results, the switch selector formed part of the 'online' auction and I can't find the results for those lots.

It had an estimate of 2,000-3,000 GBP - and it fetched a lot more:




13,750 GBP
