George Lazenby, Maud Adams, and Caroline Munro will all be at the HOLLYWOOD COLLECTORS & CELEBRITIES SHOW on Oct. 5th and 6th. They'll be signing their own pics and whatever else you bring along (for a small fee). This show is held 3 or 4 times a year at the Beverly Garland Holiday Inn near Universal Studios. Bond celebs frequently appear at these shows.

Well Zen I will be there probably on Saturday. I live in the Valley so it'll be nice and close. When are you planning on going? The website doesn't give any information on when each of the celebs are going to be there. Are they there for the entire day or only a short period. You're probably the wrong person to ask, but what the hey!

[zencat]

No, I'm the right person to ask because I always go to the show when there's a Bond personality there. I've designated my copy of The James Bond Girls as my "autograph book" and whenever I encounter a Bond Girl I have her sign it. I have over a dozen signatures in it--I'm hoping to get a girl from each film. I have Laz and Maud from the last time they did tis show (although I had Maud sign her Octopussy page, maybe this time I

Look for me in line. I'll be the guy holding a copy of The James Bond Girls. Come up and say "hi." That goes for you too rafterman. Maybe we could all have lunch. They do a BBQ in the open courtyard of the hotel.

Zen, I 'll be holding a James Bond Girl's book as well. That should make it easy to find one another. I would love to get together for lunch with you and rafterman. It will be nice to have a "real" James Bond conversation!

Guys, just to let you know that Paul Kyriazi will be at the Hollywood Collector's Show on Saturday to see George Lazenby (he dedicated The Complete James Bond Lifestyle Seminar to George). So if you're on the look out for another Bond fan to chat with, be on the look out for him at the BBQ

I live in Los Angeles too, well actually I live in the valley but it's still L.A. Unfortunately, I'm too busy with school work to attend.

[zencat]

Wanted to throw this back up as a reminder to all the folk in LA... I heard that Trudie Parks (Bambie from DAF) might be there as well, but I didn't see her listed on the mailer I recieved. I'm going tomorrow in the AMish. Maybe I'll see some of you there.

Specking of cool LA star sightings... I went to a special screening last night of "This Is Cinerama" (in Cinerama!) in the newly restored Cinerama Dome. Sitting in front of me was John Landis, Betty Thomas, the guy who played "Putty" on Seinfeld, and, wait for it, Thora Birch! Thora freakin' Birch! (You know, American Beauty, Ghost World...) Beautiful, talented, young, and a raging movie geek (from what I could hear of her conversation). That was a nice two hours in the dark.

[Ry]

I'll be there around 10:00 am. I hope to see you there zecat! By the way you are a lucky like man to have seen Thora Birch. I hope she is as beautiful in person as she is in films.

[BondNumber7]

From the information I got from the DAF making of documentary, it sounded as if the actress who played Thumper had not seen Trudie Parks since the filming of that scene. She atleast sounded like she had not seen Bambi in many years and said how she remembered the girl to be a gymnast. Jimmy Dean on the other hand did not meet either girl as he left the set before Bambi and Thumper arrived. Maybe years later he finally met them but I'm not sure.

I won't be able to make it this weekend, but enjoy yourselves.

We fellow LA CBn people should plan a night of "shop talk" soon.

[Tim007]

If anyone buys me a flight ticket to L.A. I will attend as well

[zencat]

Ry and rafterman...

Sorry I missed you guys. Last time there was a long line for Maud and George, but this time I just walked right up to them. I was in and out of there pretty quickly (I even scored a killer parking space). Next time lets choose a specific time and place to meet. Maybe next time Bryce will come and we can commandeer one of those large round tables out by the BBQs and have a Bond/CBn summit?

Caroline Munroe was a sweetheart.

Oh, and Trina Parks was there last time. Darn! I hope she comes back.

Why wait for an event? Let's plan a hook up sometime before DAD opens and go for some "shop-talk". Any takers?

Ain't she just!

[WarBird]

They should bring some of the conventions over to the east side of the U.S., to share some of the fun. Even though it would be pointless to do so.

[Ry]

I'm totally up for meeting some time to talk shop of Bond. Name the time and place and I will be there!
