My LP53 With Box And Papers

Here are pictures of my LP53 with original box, manual, targets, extra sights and cocking ball. I got this one way back with the assistance of Ed Magianni and one of his connections. As far as I'm concerned it is one of the must haves for any Bond collection because it figures prominently in much of the 60's era Connery/Bond poster campaigns and artwork. The look of it was aped, although not exactly, in the foreign campaigns of OHMSS. The look of the big pistol was also aped in the early Moore/Bond poster campaigns. Lazenby and Moore's guns look like they were concocted by the artist.

Always a pleasure to look them over....

Most of my stuffs are in storage right now and since I got so much stuffs they are stored one on top of another.
My wife is not so happy with my collection so I packed them up such that they take the least space in the house so it would least bother her. I would love to post more photos to share the joy and sickness of collecting and will do so when I can. I will do one with all my LP53s line up (I think I have the most here - just like your AR7) and may throw in the LP3s also.

You said it brother, "joy and sickness". It will be great to see all your gems including the LP3s when you get a chance. Can't wait to see them.

Wow, thanks for the endorsement. That's very kind of you to say.
