[Spy novels] 14 volumes. Later printings (three firsts), in a similar format to the first printings. Octavos (20 x 14 x 36cm). Publisher's hardbacks in original illustrated dust-jackets. All Cape printings (the original publisher of the James Bond novels), the final three titles being FIRST IMPRESSIONS. No inscriptions. One or t…wo occasional marks, neat book store stamp to final title, some minor handling. All jackets are bright and fresh, showing publisher's price (either printed or label) except for Octopussy, which is clipped. Overall an excellent set. An attractive vintage complete collection; with early hardcovers much in demand, and many being destined for the library system, this series is becoming rather difficult to assemble in decent order.
