As part of the celebration of the 60th anniversary of Ian Fleming’s first James Bond novel, Casino Royale, vintage Classics partnered with Bentley Motors to create a luxury limited edition of the book that introduced Special Agent 007 to the world. The special edition printing features an exclusive introduction from racing legend, Sir Stirling Moss, making it a true collector’s item. Just 500 editions were produced in this limited run.

The inspiration was endless.” From the hand-bound beluga leather...
