By the way, this is my first post having only stumbled upon the site just the other day. It's top notch if I say so myself and the posts I've read have not only been interesting, but also, quite entertaining. Take care all.

Not sure if they have images but these are all booksellers so the descriptions are well documented.
Good luck.

While I've actually found some, there are usually the notorious 'No Image Available' so I'm a bit worried I'm only going to find a battered old copy with torn cover and missing pages.
Has anyone purchased one of these 'no image available' copies and been pleasantly surprised by the condition, or are they pretty tatty as dlb007 suggests may be the case?

I was thinking about this... With the lull in the literary Bond at the moment, this would be a great time to reissue the Gardner books. I'd love to see fresh new editions. Might even give them all a re-read.
I agree, after the terrific Fleming re-issues, it would be nice to see something similar done with the Gardner books; I liked a lot of the Gardner books and I think "Icebreaker" was the best Non Fleming Bond book out there...

Do you have a copy of all the Gardners now?I was finally able to get over to one of the used bookstores in town. Right off the bat I was able to find 7 of the Gardner novels, all of which were in pretty good shape. I even found Licence to Kill, which I hear is hard to come by. There did not have Amis (righting as Markham) or the Benson's, but I'm planning to check by there again and maybe another store and see what they have.
