Jimmy Bond Woody Allen Jacket

Made of beige cotton fabric, the jacket features a pointed collar, with large brown buttons running down the front. Matching buttons are located on the hip pockets with a pair of hook-and-eye fastenings on the collar. The jacket is fully lined with light brown satin, and has an M. Berman Ltd. label inside the interior pocket, reading “Woody Allen” in blue ink. The jacket displays light signs of wear as a result of age and use, with slight discolouration around the inside of the collar and small plucks to the fabric.

LIVE AND LET DIE (1973)

Tee Hee Julius Harris Jacket

Tee Hee’s (Julius Harris) jacket from Guy Hamilton’s spy film Live and Let Die.

The double-breasted jacket is made from black and grey houndstooth material with black and white marbled buttons and a black and white polka dot satin lining. The right sleeve is longer than the left and displays a long slit along the seam in order to allow the use of Tee Hee’s prosthetic pincer hand. The original hand-written label reading “Tee Hee No 1” has become unstuck from the interior pocket; however, it still accompanies the jacket. The jacket displays signs of wear from use, including slight tears and fraying to the lining surrounding the left-hand pocket.
£1,000-1,500

232. Shark Fin and Air Pellet
LIVE AND LET DIE (1973)

Shark Fin and Air Pellet

A shark fin and air pellet from Guy Hamilton’s spy film Live and Let Die. James Bond (Roger Moore) looked off the back of Quarrel Jr.’s (Roy Stewart) boat and saw several shark fins in the water behind them. The air pellet comes from the film’s finale where Bond finally bested Dr. Kananga (Yaphet Kotto) by forcing him to swallow the pellet.

The shark fin is hollow and is made of fiberglass that is painted matt brown. The air pellet is made of polished metal, with a small black, rubber ring around the bottom of the round that attaches to the screw top. Both pieces show light wear from production and age, but remain in great condition. Accompanying each piece is a letter of authenticity from William Grefe, who is credited for his work on the shark scenes. Dimensions (fin): 36 cm x 20 cm x 40 ½ cm (14” x 8” x 16”); (pellet): 2 cm x 2 cm x 5 cm(¾” x ¾” x 2”)

TOMORROW NEVER DIES (1995)

James Bond Pierce Brosnan Ericsson Gadget Phone

James Bond’s (Pierce Brosnan) Ericsson gadget phone from Roger Spottiswoode’s spy film Tomorrow Never Dies. Bond used his phone as he escaped from Elliot Carver’s (Jonathan Pryce) headquarters, using his remote-control BMW 750iL car to evade Carver’s guards.
This is a stunt, non-practical version of the phone, ideal for use in long-distance shots, or sequences in which the phone could only be seen from behind, rather than closeups of the internal keypad and screen. One of only 12 created for the production, the prop is made of resin, with a hinge enabling it to open and reveal the keys, touchpad and screen inside, although the buttons are static and cannot be depressed. The front screen has a static display mimicking a real phone, and the inside screen has a similar display depicting the car’s view of the attackers, which was added when on display at the Bond In Motion exhibition at Beaulieu Motor Museum.
With some minor marks from use on set, the phone remains in very good condition and is presented on a custom-made display stand. Dimensions (displayed): 16.5 cm x 16.5 cm x 13.5 cm (6 ½” x 6 ½” x 5 ¼”)
