LIVE AND LET DIE

Sixth printing of the 1954 first edition. Signed by the author. Original cloth in dustwrapper. A superb near fine, clean, bright and tight copy, the lightest of bumping to the spine tips. The contents, with the "Four Oaks Farm" bookplate of film producer Stan Meyer to the front free endpaper are otherwise clean throughout. Complete with the very good rubbed and nicked original dustwrapper which has a small chip to the bottom of the spine where it meets the slightly dusty rear panel. Not price-clipped; 15s net.

Signed by the Ian Fleming in blue ink on the front free endpaper. Provenance: From the library of Stanley and Dodo Meyer. Stanley Meyer, a producer at Warner Brothers, had in 1956 expressed an interest in buying an option on Live and Let Die and Moonraker. At the time of presentation he was producer and co-owner of the legendary Dragnet, the most successful police series on US television.
