    the last time i saw that book for sale it was at the £150 / £200 region

    but that was years a go. never seen it since.

    And to be honest most of the images from it have made it into other
    Bond books published since its release.

    I will keep an eye out for you. if I see one for sale i will PM you or email etc

    i have no interest in one as my good friend Nick from jamesbondtoys.net gave me a loan of this book to allow me to scan and photograph all of its data and contents and pictures etc. and as I say there is very little from the book that has not made it ito other books and brochures over the years since its publication

    There is, oddly, also an Italian language version. It was on eBay not that long ago ... considered bidding but have the Japanese and wondered what I needed another for ... particularly since neither is in English!

    The Italian edition didn't fetch that much ... possibly because everyone is so actively searching for "Japanese."

    As I write this, I wonder if the exhibition published the book in a variety of languages for international visitors? Might there be German and French versions out there as well?

    Alan,
    I bought the Japanese version about a year or two ago. I think it's the same but I'm not sure.

    I have the Italian one: "Il mio nome é Bond" Il mondo di 007 by Fabbri Editori.
    I believe it is almost identical with the Japanese.

    I don't know this book. There are plenty of books about Bond, what this one, especially since it's in Italian or Japanese?

    Just after GoldenEye there was a prop exhibition in Japan that featured a beautiful catalog with the English title of 007 Archive. It covers all of the films from DN thru GE plus a bit of history on Fleming and so on. The photographs are indispensable as a prop-replicators reference. The Japanese language edition can be found on eBay and elsewhere and has gotten rather expensive; in this thread we were noting that the less well-know Italian edition is, as a rule, a good deal less costly.

    If you're interested but having trouble locating the book or can't afford what you find, virtually all of the prop photos in The Secret World ... books were lifted from the Archive.

    Cool. I have the Italian version of this book. But I could always go for the first iteration.

    So, what sharp little eyes you've got...wait till you get to my teeth.
