On October 29, 2008, Rittenhouse Archives Ltd. released a new collection of James Bond trading cards called James Bond in Motion. This set contains the following Felix Leiter cards:
Bond Allies
BA26 - Felix Leiter in Live And Let Die
BA29 - Felix Leiter in Thunderball
BA30 - Felix Leiter in Goldfinger
BA35 - Felix Leiter in Diamonds Are Forever
Costume/Prop Relic Cards
DC04 - Felix Leiter from Casino Royale (Double)
Autograph Cards
A116 - John Terry as Felix Leiter in The Living Daylights (40th Anniversary Style) (Very Limited)
The James Bond: Dangerous Liaisons and The Complete James Bond trading cards from 2006 and 2007, respectively, also contain the following Felix Leiter cards:
James Bond: Dangerous Liaisons
Bond Allies
BA01 - Felix Leiter in Dr. No
The Complete James Bond
Casino Royale: Dangerous Liaisons
DL3 - James Bond-Felix Leiter
Casino Royale Expansion Cards
BA19 - Felix Leiter in Casino Royale
I noticed there is a “Bond Allies” card for 6 of the 7 “official” Felix Leiter actors (Jack Lord, Cec Linder, Rik Van Nutter, Norman Burton, David Hedison and Jeffrey Wright). I don’t think a John Terry “Bond Allies” card exists yet but he does have an “Autograph Card” that matches Rittenhouse’s 40th Anniversary cards. As I mentioned above, this specific card is included in the new James Bond in Motion set.
On March 4, 2009, Rittenhouse will release James Bond Archives. It will retail for $84.00. Since I only care about the Felix Leiter trading cards, I will avoid the extravagantly priced sets and just buy the individual Leiter cards on eBay. I’m already in possession of the ”Bond Allies” cards for Jack Lord, Cec Linder, Rik Van Nutter and Jeffrey Wright.
(Older trading cards featuring David Hedison as Felix Leiter can be viewed at DavidHedison.net, FYI)
