I'm a Bond book collector and would like someone to verify that there was no 'Making of' book or companion book for the release of 'The Living Daylights'.
Any information would be gratefully received.

    Starlog did publish a poster magazine. Never got this myself, but I've always thought there might be some "making of" information in the magazine. Here are some details that might/might not help (pub date, ISBN):

    Never heard of the official "The Making of TLD" book - but if you want such info I recommend this great and undervalued book written by John Glen - the director of TLD and four other Bond films - only 99 cents on Amazon!

    Also check out The Official James Bond Movie Book by
    Sally Hibbin, it was published to coincide with the
    release of The Living Daylights, I don't own a copy my self, but I understand it has great info on all the films up to that point along with many photos.

    As for the poster magazine, I do own a copy, it has great interviews with the cast and crew along with several stills from both the film and behind the Scenes.

    Lastly American Cinematographer magazine's July 1987 issue has some behind the scenes info and articles on the film you can purchase a copy athttp://www.djwilliamsphotography.com, the homepage of the Bondpix website.

    Happy Collecting

    I almost forgot to mention that Mile High Comics has the TLD poster magazine for sale at http://www.milehighcomics.com, and yes the do ship
    oversees.

    I have purchased many James Bond items for them since last fall and I can tell you that they are a first class place to purchase from.

    Enjoy
