A fresh and highly collectible first edition example of The Man with the Golden Gun, the twelfth and final novel in Ian Fleming's James Bond series and the thirteenth Bond book overall (followed by Octopussy and The Living Daylights).

This has the second state binding (the first being the scarcest recognised discreet state of any book - less than 1000 copies published. Learn more here.)

First edition, first impression, second state (without the gilt gun stamped on the front cover). Original black boards with gilt spine lettering. The binding is tight and square with no lean. Green patterned endpapers. Inside the book is as new with the pages remarkably fresh and white. The original dust jacket has bright colours and no toning with the correct issue point of 18 s net price on front flap. Easily the best example a collector could ask for.

Published by Jonathan Cape, London, 1965.

Fast becoming the go to guy in sourcing and selling the finest originals from Peter Beard. Very professional, highly recommend.
It was a real pleasure to work with Mr Oliver Bayliss, even from abroad, everything went so smoothly. You can consign your valuable books with confidence !
Oliver sold a book for me recently and the process couldn’t have gone more smoothly. Bayliss rare books are great to deal with and thanks to Oliver’s experience and salesmanship I was very happy with the final deal.
Highly professional service, extremely knowledgeable and easy to deal with, he's a collector first and foremost and you can see he cares.
Repeat customer. I've bought 4 books now from Oliver. Extremely knowledgeable in his field, he always has really interesting pieces in stock. He has hand delivered 2 of the books I have bought and sent the other 2 out by post. Would highly recommend.
