Before James Bond became a screen icon 1, he was a paperback 2 hero. A new exhibition of 007 book covers charts the changing image of the suave 3 British spy and his world of fast cars, luxury casinos and alluring 4 women.
Ranging from the 1950s to the present day and spanning the globe, the artwork reveals how Bond's unique brand of glamour 5 has been adapted to widely differing times and places.
"The books have been in print since they were first published, and have now been printed in almost every language," said Selina Skipwith, curator of "Bond Bound: Ian Fleming and the Art of Cover Design" at the Fleming Collection gallery in London's affluent 6 Mayfair district.
She said the covers "are a great survey of taste and of what was permissible 7. The U.S. is much happier with guns, while the Europeans are much more relaxed about nudity."The earliest cover, from the 1955 paperback edition of Bond's debut 8, "Casino Royale," shows a strangely bland 9 Bond, bow-tied and with a carnation 10 in his buttonhole, seated at a poker 11 table. Later covers are slicker and racier-near-naked women, gleaming guns and glimmering 12 diamonds are popular motifs 13.
The exhibition is one of several events marking the centenary of the birth of Bond's creator, Ian Fleming, and also includes Fleming memorabilia from collectors around the world.
