Much appreciated! :) I need to get to OHMSS soon!
Interesting. Good to at least know it should still be in the works and coming eventually. I see no reason not to include all the short stories so we have a completely complete Fleming Folio set! I just started on OHMSS in my marathon actually to kick off the new year.
What would be the reason it wouldn't be included? Thanks also for the info on this missing edition!
Just because '007 in New York' wasn't originally released with the collection. I think it was only added in 2002? But I suspect they'll probably include it.
For some reason, I'm not expecting 007 in New York to be in there. I think perhaps because it was never a 'proper' short story. I'd rather it be in there of course. The more the merrier!
And as I've said on this thread before, Property of a Lady wasn't even in the first UK hardback. It was a really slim book when it first came out.
That's my UK 1st on top of my Folios. As you can see, it could use a bit of beefing up!
'The Property of a Lady' (The Ivory Hammer, 1963) also wasn't included in Octopussy until the Pan paperback edition in 1967 so hopefully* both extra stories will appear in this collection. However, the fact the Folio Society is referring to it as Octopussy and The Living Daylights, the Jonathan Cape first edition title, makes one wonder a little...

Beautiful collection! The UK First is an awesome inclusion too. Three away from completing my own, four including Octopussy.
