Stuntman in YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE 1967

I was fortunate to attend another Autographica event for my 4th time and the 8th edition in total arranged by professional organiser Garry King and his team.

It was great to see some new Bond film related faces such as this most friendly and kind man who offered his courage, skills and talent for this film.

I had the privilege of seeing Mr Baker in person at Radisson Edwardian Hotel near Heathrow Airport on the 4th of June 2006 after a really horrific journey from the city of London as it took almost 4 hours to get to the hotel because of terrible traffic and tube reconstruction works. But, as always, a a passionate fan always fulfills the mission.
