Ian Fleming's James Bond - The Paperbacks - Pan Model / White series 1969-1971

This striking series of covers was first released in 1969 and feature actors dressed as characters from the novels against a white background. Some collectors refer to them as the white series and others as the model series (both for obvious reasons). They retain the large “James Bond” title at the top of the front cover as first seen on the Hawkey series. Some titles had only one printing and as a consequence they are far less common than the earlier cover designs. The white backgrounds tend to mark and the spines fade in sunlight so it is a challenge collect a set in fine condition.

11 of the 14 James Bond titles were released in this series, the missing titles being:

Thunderball
On Her Majesty’s Secret Service
You Only Live Twice

The assumed reason for not publishing these titles is that they had excess stocks of the Film Tie- In versions of the book. These three titles when published in the Still Life series were a mix of pages printed in the 1960s and covers from 1972 supporting the argument that they had excess stock to use up.
