Sir Roger Moore

The Personal Collection

4 October 2023 | starting at 13:00 BST

Black tie, fast cars, and shaken Martinis - it has to be Bond.

Sir Roger Moore (1927-2017) is synonymous with the style and sophistication of James Bond, having played the spy in a total of seven films, more than any other actor in the series, including in Live and Let Die (1973), The Spy Who Loved Me (1977), For Your Eyes Only (1981), Octopussy (1983), and A View to a Kill (1985). More than this, Sir Roger became one of the style symbols of his generation and an icon of British cool, with his credits also including the TV shows The Saint (1962-1969) and The Persuaders (1971).

On 4 October, we will offer lots from his personal collection in a dedicated sale, on the 50th anniversary year of his first appearance as 007.
