The Glitterati of Bond fandom were out in force on 10th September 2022 at The Ian Fleming Foundation’s (IFF) 30th anniversary celebration at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles. Co-founder Michael VanBlaricum related how Danjaq publicist Saul Cooper offered him a submarine from For Your Eyes Only (1981) and VanBlaricum joined forces with Doug Redenius and John Cork (“the two biggest Bond fans I knew”) to buy it, saving it from the scrap yard. Since then, the IFF has preserved an astonishing 42 Bond vehicles, saving most from a date with a crusher.
