The Man With The Golden Gun
1965 (First Edition, First Impression, Second State).

Not the extremely rare First State example so avidly sought world wide (with a golden gun on front board) but a rare book in this near fine condition nevertheless and will appeal certainly to specialist Fleming collectors as well as keen Bond devotees. Good value.
