Description

 A first edition, first printing of Dr. No, signed by Eunice Gayson and Charles Edghill.

  • Ian Fleming (English).
  • London: Jonathan Cape, 1958.
  • Signed on the title page by the actress Eunice Gayson, who played the character ‘Sylvia Trench’ in the 1962 motion picture of Dr No

Dr. No is the sixth James Bond novel by Ian Fleming, published in 1958. It follows British spy James Bond as he investigates the disappearance of two agents in Jamaica, leading to the mysterious Dr. No, a reclusive villain with a deadly plan. The 1962 film adaptation, starring Sean Connery in his debut as Bond, launched the iconic movie franchise. Set in the Caribbean, the film features classic Bond elements: espionage, action, gadgets, and glamorous women. Dr. No’s lair, Ursula Andress’s beach entrance, and Connery’s suave performance made the film a pop culture milestone and a blueprint for future Bond films.
