(Sorry, out of stock...SOLD for $55.00) TV Guide Special James Bond 007 Issue, from November 13, 1999. Heralding Pierce Brosnan as 007, this extra-thick TV Guide issue features not only interviews with suave Mr. Brosnan, but a great Bond article by the late William F. Buckley, a gang-interview with several former "Bond Girls", and...get this, all you collectors of Bond periphery...AN ORIGINAL JAMES BOND SHORT STORY, "LIVE AT FIVE", BY RAYMOND BENSON! Published the week "The World Is Not Enough" arrived in movie theatres in America, "Live at Five" is the shortest of all James Bond stories, even shorter than Ian Fleming's previous record-holder "007 in New York". Running only a couple of thousand words, if that, it is a brief episode that sees Bond, en route to a date with a very female TV news reporter, recalling how he once helped a Russian figure skating champion defect in full view of TV cameras. The reporter, Janet Davies, becomes the second real person to be a Bond girl, seen daily on Chicago's local ABC station Channel 7 WLS. Because this issue of TV Guide was only available in the United States for a short period of time, and the story has, to date, never been reprinted elsewhere, "Live at Five" is one of the hardest-to-find Bond stories. This issue of TV Guide is HIGHLY COLLECTIBLE, friends. At present, "Live at Five" is the only James Bond-related short story to have NEVER been published in the United Kingdom. You simply WILL NOT find this story anywhere else...it appeared exclusively in this issue of TV Guide and then faded away into obscurity. This is a REAL piece of Bondage that any serious collector will not want to miss. And, oh yes, this copy we have in The Pop Top Shop is in great condition. Need we say more? Out of stock.
