Die Another Day/Aston-Martin Vanquish "Handbuilt in England for James Bond" door-sill plate....

Description

Die Another Day/Aston-Martin Vanquish "Handbuilt in England for James Bond" door-sill plate. (Eon Productions, 2002) Signed on backside in faded marker by special-effects technician Andy Simms, "To George - All the Best- Andy S." Interesting artifact from one of the real stars of this 007 film, the Aston-Martin V12 Vanquish, this engraved 1 ½ x 6 in. stainless-steel door-sill plate was attached to each film-production car at the Newport Pagnell factory, and this particular plate was removed post-production from a car that sustained damage during filming. Very fine.
