BARAVELLI SUPER BALL 007 VINTAGE MAGAZINE ADVERT

Inserzione pubblicitaria per la «Super Ball 007» (pallina giocattolo prodotta dalla Baravelli), stampata sulla terza di copertina di un numero del settimanale Topolino (ed. Mondadori) uscito nella seconda metà degli anni ‘60.

Dimensioni della pagina: 13 x 18,5 cm.

Vintage advertising for an official James Bond toy called “Super Ball 007”, printed on the inside back cover of a mid-1960s issue of the Italian weekly magazine Topolino. As the copy on the right side of the ad would have you believe, James Bond likes to use this “magic ball” to relax between missions.

Page size is approximately 5.1” x 7.2”

PERRIER 007 BOTTLE OPENER

Apribottiglie in metallo dorato marca Perrier, Francia, 1995, lungh. cm 15 x 5

Gold metal bottle opener. France. 1995. Approximately 5.9" x 1.9".

Known in its native France as "Le Décapsuleur 007", this item was produced by Perrier Water to coincide with the theatrical release of the film GoldenEye.

JAMES BOND MOVIE POSTER STICKERS

Adesivi pubblicitari dei film «Moonraker - Operazione Spazio» e «Solo per i tuoi occhi», Italia, anni '80, rispettivamente cm 7 x 12,5 e cm 7 x 12.

Promotional stickers featuring the Italian locandina posters of Moonraker (left) and For Your Eyes Only (right), 1980s, Italy, 2.7” x 4.9” and 2.7” x 4.7” respectively.

These small stickers could be found on sale in most Italian cinemas during the 1980s along with dozens of other similarly-sized stickers reproducing posters of popular films of the period.

They were all printed in large quantities, which is why they are not so hard to find even today in their country of origin.

Some Italian Ebay sellers call these items “Cineadesivi” (Italian for “movie stickers”), but the more common terms used in classified or auction ads are either “Adesivi locandine film” or “Adesivi film”.

Aside from the pair pictured above, however, no other Bond film was included in this range of stickers.

BONDIANA BEGINS

Hello fellow James Bond collectors!

I’ve been a 007 fan since the age of 9, when I saw The Spy Who Loved Me during its original theatrical run in Italy in 1977.

This blog is meant to serve as a virtual gallery of James Bond collectibles from around the world.

Not all the photos you can see in this blog represent what I have in my possession, mind you – I just thought it would have been nice to collect data and photos about worldwide James Bond collectibles and put them into a single place.

If you would like to contribute photos and basic information about items that you think are worthy of inclusion in this blog, please write me at f.ditalia@alice.it, stating if you would like your contribution to be acknowledged in the post with a photo credit.
