Description: In addition to meeting actors and other movie/tv people at science fiction conventions and book festivals, I also attended a number of Hollywood Celebrity shows where you could get memorabilia signed by actors for a (usually) reasonable fee. I bought this autographed bookplate from Moody Books about 20 years ago. Bookplate signed by actor Tony Curtis without inscription or personalization laid in (not attached). Note: This is a UK region 2 DVD and to watch in the US or Canada requires a region free DVD player or a computer with DVD player that has software allowing region free playing.

About the show: The Persuaders! is a British action comedy television series starring Tony Curtis and Roger Moore, produced by ITC Entertainment, and initially broadcast on ITV and ABC in 1971. The show has been called 'the last major entry in the cycle of adventure series that began 11 years earlier with Danger Man in 1960', as well as 'the most ambitious and most expensive of Sir Lew Grade's international action adventure series'.[1] The Persuaders! was filmed in Britain, France, and Italy between May 1970 and June 1971.

Episode 03 - "Five Miles to Midnight": In Rome, Frank Rocco, a Mafia hitman, is on the run from the Mob after offering to turn state's evidence. Fulton asks Brett and Danny to get him out of the country, but when a beautiful photographer (Joan Collins) gets involved the boys find themselves in a shooting war.

Episode 04 - "The Gold Napoleon": The niece (Susan George) of a jeweller (Harold Goldblatt) is marked for death when she discovers that reproduction gold coins are being marketed as real. Towards the end of this episode, Lord Sinclair's Aston Martin is seen – in a chase across the Italian border – to reveal its true identity by way of its front number plate, being black characters on a white background, "PPP 6H".

Episode 05 - "Take Seven": When a supposedly dead man reappears to claim his inheritance, a beautiful aristocrat (Sinéad Cusack) asks Brett and Danny to expose him as an imposter.

Episode 06 - "Greensleeves": An old, abandoned manor called Greensleeves is suspiciously restored unbeknownst to its rightful owner, Lord Sinclair. He must impersonate himself, and, with the help of Danny, discover why "MI5 agents" (Andrew Keir, Rosemary Nicols and Tom Adams) have invited Richard Congoto, an African leader and old school friend of Brett's, to the manor for talks.

Condition: Near Fine, DVD case a little dusty from sitting on the shelf, I see a couple of fingerprint smudges and a few scratches on the DVD.
