The James Bond Archives
007 - Edited by Paul Duncan
"Having read a variety of
negative comments in some Bond fan forums concerning the
£135 retail price of this book, I firmly believe that had
this volume cost twice as much it would still be a
bargain. Not one to miss under any circumstances!"

JON AUTY reviews the latest
important autobiography of a man who put much of the action and excitement
into the James Bond movie series.
It is indeed a refreshing
change to read an autobiography that actually tells you something about
the subject. How many times have we seen the best-seller list filled with
‘z’ list celebrities cashing in on their 15 minutes of fame by talking
nonsense for 200 pages? Here we have a man who has lived so much in the
last 40 years that 340 pages doesn’t seem like enough...

Painting The Last Rose Of Summer
“Paul Jilbert has
produced a relaxing 78-minute eye opening celebration of the work of one
of America’s greatest living artists, and in the process has guaranteed
the astonishing artwork of Robert McGinnis will be seen by the wider
audience it so richly deserves. This is one DVD that no lover of movie
poster art, or for that matter, art lover, should be without. Remarkable
work lovingly showcased.”

THE
PENFOLD HEART IS BACK!
The Penfold Heart, the golf ball favoured by 007 and
made famous in the 1960s, is finally back in action.
Penfold Golf is relaunching its HEART™ ball on-line to
commemorate the Ian Fleming Centenary 2008.
The golf ball with the heart logo was made famous by the
1964 Bond film, Goldfinger. 007 plays with a
Penfold Heart ball in defeating arch-villain Auric
Goldfinger. Sean Connery (playing Bond for the third
time in the third Bond movie) became a keen golfer as a
result of playing golf in the blockbuster film. Co-star,
the Penfold Heart, also shot to stardom - orders for the
British-made Penfold Heart poured in after the release
of Goldfinger.
Penfold's world
class history
Started in Birmingham in the 1920s, this British
manufacturer of golf balls became world famous for
exporting its one and two-piece golf balls. In the
1960s, the world's greatest golfers signed up to play
for Penfold: Seve Ballesteros, Gary Player, and Curtis
Strange were joined in the 1970s by Peter Oosterhuis,
Christy O'Connor, Howard Clark and Nick Faldo.
Anyone who was anyone either played for Penfold or
played with a Penfold.
In the most famous golf match in literature, Fleming
based the fictitious game between 007 and Goldfinger at
a club closely mirroring his beloved Royal St. George's
Golf Club in Sandwich, Kent. This summer, The Royal St.
George's traced Penfold Golf back to its Birmingham
roots to commission Penfold Hearts with the 007 logo on.
These were premièred in a charity golf match for The
British Heart Foundation, hosted as part of the Ian
Fleming Centenary events.
Making the 007 golf balls encouraged Penfold Golf to
re-instate the famous Heart golf balls. A limited number
of collector's sets of Penfold Hearts are being launched
in two waves. The first wave launches this week. A
donation will be made to The British Heart Foundation
from each of the 500 collector's sets.
The collector's 12-ball sets, costing £50 are only
available from
www.penfoldgolf.com
"Each set comes in a commemorative slipcase, with a
sequentially-numbered card to validate its authenticity
as a collector's limited edition," explains Penfold Golf
director, William Baird, who has guided the manufacture
of golf balls for some 30 years.
"We are anticipating demand from both golfers and Bond
fans, as both Penfold and 007 have a quintessentially
British appeal, which is why we are launching the
collector's sets in two phases," adds Baird.
