Repost with an image of your favorite James Bond (wrong answers only). Niche, but some will get it.

It's Dr. John Dee - an older gentleman, from the 'Elizabethan era', he's wearing a black skull cap and dark clothing possibly robes. He also has the obligatory lace ruff.

Part of my timeline.
Skeet from the talented and modest, he's won a gold ennie don't you know?, @drmonkeyface.bsky.social depiction of marginalia that's to go into a new TTRPG scenario. Two drawings side by side, depicting the same scene, one's been coloured. A medieval monk bends over, with his cassock lifted. There appears to be a trumpet up his arse. A female figure is kneeling behind the monk, hand held up, as if to ward off the sight.

Underneath is a skeet from fesshole which reads:
When I was 24 I finally persuaded a girlfriend to let me look at her anus as she broke wind. I really wanted see the noise being made, and whilst I don't regret it, it's not an experience I have ever wanted to repeat

Arrived yesterday and in perfect condition despite being posted through the letterbox. A beautiful book from @crumpledlinenpress.com Oh, Whistle And I'll Come To You, My Lad. Annotated manuscripts of MR James. I shall enjoy reading this, but only during the daylight hours.

Front cover, dust jacket of the annotated ghost story manuscripts of MR James. Vol one is 'Oh, Whistle and I'll come to you, my lad'.
The dust jacket pictures a man wearing a flat cap taking a walk along a desolate beach. Some distance behind is the ominously silhouetted figure of another person.

Title page, numbered (124 of 300) and sighed.

Page spread. On the left is a black and white illustration.
A book covered desktop, one of the books is open. Above which are a pair of hands that are holding a bone whistle.

Page spread.
On the right, a facsimile of James' manuscript.
On the left, the contents of the manuscript page in more legible print.
