This is a rare opportunity to own this highly sought-after cosplay prop set inspired by the vintage James Bond productions! These reproduction props are professionally printed using the best quality materials. They are created using traditional film and television art department techniques for added authenticity and so are perfect for on-screen or display use.
Note: This listing is for a vintage-style reproduction naval intelligence ID card and a pair of cream mid-weight cardstock Commander Bond business cards as pictured. Any other items pictured are not included in the auction and are for illustration purposes only.
ID Card Note: This type of vintage-style identification card features in a promotional photograph (and can clearly be seen in the display window of a wallet, alongside a bullion Royal Navy crest) used on some publicity for the early Connery-era films (Dr. No, Thunderball, Goldfinger etc...)
Business Cards Note: This style of business card is believed to have been based on a real-word design dating back to the 1960s that may have been in use as late as the 1980s. Although not seen in the films a business card similar to these is visible amongst some of Bond’s personal effects alongside some varied Brosnan and Pierce-era items at an exhibition back in 2012.
Trivia: Sir Sean Connery is morbidly afraid of spiders. The shot of the spider in his bed in ‘Dr. No’ was done with a sheet of glass between him and the spider, which can be seen in one shot in the movie. When this didn't look realistic enough, additional close-up scenes were re-shot with stuntman Bob Simmons. Simmons reported that the tarantula crawling over Bond was the scariest stunt he had ever performed. According to Steven Jay Rubin's 1981 book "The James Bond Films", this tarantula was named "Rosie".
