More Information
The final, and posthumous Fleming title with a print run of
50,000 copies. The majority of copies have re-priced jackets and serious
collectors should seek out an unclipped copy and also one that shows no signs of
label removal over the original price. The book is in fact 2 short stories both
of which were later adapted for films. Octopussy is often the natural starting
point for Fleming collectors and its availability is such that only a nice clean
copy should be bought. Condition is everything in this field and whilst
ambitions may need to be lowered for the early titles only nice copies of late
titles should be considered by anyone building a serious collection. We hope you
have found these bibliographies useful.
