A Few Replica Prop Photo's

A few months back I got some of the wonderful paper props that Ed at http://www.thespyboys.com/ offers to add to my collection.

A couple of weeks ago I got a new camera, and today I had a go at photographing some of the prop's as I don't have them on permanent display at the minute.

Here's some of the resulst:

Blueprint photo's from everyone's favourite Bond film Moonraker:

The mugshot of Emile Leopold Locque from For Your Eyes Only:

A few bits and pieces frm Goldeneye:

Vesper's Business Card from Casino Royale:

And finally not an Ed purchase but:

Bond's Binocular Glasses used to spy on Pushkin inThe Living Daylights:

And the binoculars are resting on a Samsonite Xyleum briefcase as used by Mr Van Biek for the diamonds in Die Another Day:

If you are thinking of making a purchase from Ed then I can't recommend his goodies enough! Not only are they screen accurate and of high quality but reasonably priced and from my experience I not only made some purchases but I made a friend too!

And I'd be interested in knowing what you think of the photo's good bad of indifferent as I'm thinking of joining a local photography group... but I'm not 100% sure I'm good enough.

    Paul,
    I, for one, was impressed with the photography. I like the retro look of the pics in black & white.
    Do join the photography club...perhaps they'll learn from YOU.

    I've always said that the most enjoyment I have from dealing with others is that most of them become lifelong friends.

    I'm proud to say that Paul, and many others on this board, fit into that catagory.

    Here's another goodie I managed to get my hands on the other week.

    A few days ago I helped my in-laws by doing a few odd jobs.

    As a thank you - my father-in-law gave me something that I'd admired for ages - his Minox camera, similar to, but not the exact model I believe as the one used in OHMSS.

    Here are a few photo's I took of it with Ed's OHMSS letters:

    And here's my photo of Torro's ID card from Octopussy, (one of my favourite Bond films):
