Lots 8-11 are offered by the daughter of acclaimed British playwright and screenwriter Jack Whittingham who was integral in the production of the first James Bond film. Jack Whittingham's screenplay adaption from Ian Fleming's second draft treatment for the first James Bond film, resulted in a number of suggested changes to the story and characters to enable it to be a success in a visual format.
