Holiday James Bond Gathering

Dave%20Z%20Invitation[1].bmp

For one day only the Archives will be open for those that can get to Pennsylvania on December 27th. We will have good food, great fun, and LOTS TO SEE. Most of all it will be an opportunity to meet and great other Bond collectors. Joe Darlington will be giving a bartender course in making James Bond drinks as well as going over tricks of the trade of Texas Hold 'Em. We will also be showing some VERY rare video footage probably never seen by most of you. Email me at dzaritsky@msn.com if you plan on attending.

    I would love to be there...and my birthday too. Shame that I live in New Zealand right now. Well, not a shame that I live here, but that I can't attend such a fun event. :007)

    Now I hope that this isn't that footage of The Mantis modeling those Casino Royale Swimshorts!

    :o

    Alas there's a little thing stopping me attending - called the atlantic ocean - but I hope you all have a good time and I look forward to hearing about it on here in the new year.

    And here's wishing you all a Merry Christmas!

    I wish I could attend but being here down in FL, it would not be doable since we just moved from NY a few months back.

    Mantis where did you get that excellent Imge of Sean Connery at the gaming table from? Is it some long lost prototype Bond poster artwork? It looks very 60's poster 'ish.

    Not quite a 'lost treasure'.

    It's a print called "High Stakes" that was done by Robert McGinnis, he did two others at the same time...and all are fabulous.

    Check here to see them all...and buy, if you want !

    Like Q, (SGG) I will be home in Scotland at the time of this little get together, so please have an excellent time guys - I'll be there in spirit! -{

    Mantis - if possible, will you be posting pics for those of us on this side of the pond, and further afield?

    Q - hurry up and invent something really practical! - The Pocket Stealth Boat, Supersonic Little Nellie, or (personal preference) Atlantic variant GTI Lotus! :007)
    This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?
