Thriller James Bond Cold War Era Espionage British Literature

From Russia with Love, Ian Fleming’s 1956 James Bond thriller, is a cornerstone for spy-novel collectors. This vintage UK hardcover carries all the Cold-War tension that launched 007 into pop-culture legend.

The dust jacket shows its age—chips, stains, and even a few pencil doodles—but the boards beneath are solid and the binding remains reassuringly tight. A previous owner has inscribed a brief personalised note on the flyleaf; no author signature, yet the hand-written touch adds period charm.

One front blank page has been neatly removed, and a handful of tiny dog-eared corners hint at eager readings, but the text block is otherwise clean and unmarked. Perfect for readers who love the scent of an adventure already lived-in.

Ideal for fans of action-packed espionage, antiquarian crime fiction, or anyone hunting a hardcover Bond novel with genuine vintage patina.
