I don't think it was, but I couldn't find the date of the illustration.

Here's an illustration of the literary version of Dr. No, also by George Almond.

Almond did most of his stuff for the Bondage magazine in the late 80's/early 90's. A lot of it also appeared in John Griswold's chronology of Fleming's canon.

Thanks. I was wondering because the image of bond shifted after the movies so I was curious if it was working off Ian Fleming's Bond only before the movies popularized the image.

Totally. He specifically went out of his way to draw things only as Fleming described them.

This is another pic from the Folio Society Casino Royale:

Anyone else notice Fleming sitting behind him reading a copy of Casino Royale?"
