Sean Connery as James Bond 007, in From Russia With Love

This card portrays a photograph of Sean Connery in the Role of James Bond 007 in the popular ‘60s film “From Russia with Love”.  I saw this picture in Bombay (as it was called then) in 1962.

James Bond willingly falls into an assassination ploy involving a naive Russian beauty in order to retrieve a Soviet encryption device that was stolen by SPECTRE.

James Bond 007 is on the search for a Russian decoding machine, known as Lektor. Bond needs to find this machine, before the evil SPECTRE organization discovers it first. Whilst being romantically linked with Russian girl, Tatiana Romanova, Bond sneaks his way around Istanbul, whilst each SPECTRE agent tries to pick him off, including the over powering Donald 'Red' Grant and ex-KGB agent Rosa Klebb who knows all the tricks in the books and even possesses an incredible poison tipped shoe!

Leisa from Texas send me this nice card.
