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'. The Persuaders! was filmed in Britain, France, and Italy between May 1970 and June 1971.

Episode 11 - "The Old, the New and the Deadly": Danny is mistaken for a blackmailer who is the target of both a cruel French Count (Patrick Troughton) and the beautiful daughter (Anna Gaël) of a disgraced politician.

Episode 12 - "Chain of Events": Danny gets himself chained to an attaché case intended for the British Secret Service (George Baker, Suzanna Leigh), and pursued by deadly Iron Curtain agents (Peter Vaughn et al.) who want the case back and the courier dead.

Episode 13 - "That's Me Over There": After a friend (Terence Edmond) of Brett's is murdered after gathering evidence on crooked businessman Thaddeus Krane (Geoffrey Keen), Brett himself is kidnapped by his henchmen (Derek Newark, Allan Cuthbertson, Neil Hallett, Peter Gilmore) and Danny must impersonate Brett at an auction to get key evidence from an endangered informant (Suzan Farmer).

Episode 14 - "The Long Goodbye": Fulton sends the boys to Scotland, where they find a wrecked plane, a dead scientist, and a formula for cheap synthetic fuel which attracts deadly interest as well as a string of beautiful girls, all claiming to be the late inventor's heiress.

Condition: Near Fine, DVD case a little dusty from sitting on the shelf, I see tiny scratches on the DVD.
