Stephen Lane, Prop Store CEO,
commented on the upcoming auction: “Prop Store’s cinema poster auctions go from
strength-to-strength and we are delighted now to be able to offer the
Carter-Jones James Bond Poster Collection. The auction of this world-renowned
collection represents the largest ever offering of James Bond posters in the
auction market. This is a fantastic opportunity for all serious Bond collectorsâ€
Mike Bloomfield, Prop Store’s

auction includes some posters which have either never been seen before in the
auction market or appear only once every 10-15 years. There is a staggering

We expect global interest in this unique auctionâ€.
