'How To Write A Thriller' contained within 'Books and Bookmen' magazine. Vol. 8, No 8, May 1963.
London: Hansom Books, 1963. [James Bond literary reference] FIRST APPEARANCE. Pp.66. Magazine format stapled twice, fully illustrated. Original price 3s. The article appears on pp.14-19, with a vignette photograph of the author. This issue also features an advert for James Clavell's 'King Rat' with a supporting quote by Ian Fleming (p.16). Minor handling. Near fine. This Fleming article originally appeared in the UK in Queen magazine (November 1962) and in the US in Show Magazine (August 1962); those two glossy publications were far more commercial and had a wider audience. This version of the article is more elusive, appearing in a niche journal for bibliophiles, with a much smaller readership. This copy is from the collection of award-winning Ian Fleming bibliographer Jon Gilbert (pencil ownership within). Item #72257
Gilbert C108.
