The photograph Slim categorized as ”a Sunday drive with a twist”. The Amphicar was an abandoned prop from the McClory-produced Bond film Thunderball, which filmed scenes on location around the Bahamas includ- ing Huntington Hartford’s Paradise Island.Kevin O’Donovan McClory was an Irish screenwriter, film pro- ducer, and film director. His marriage to the heiress Bobo Si- grist was one of the society weddings of 1963. Kevin McClory was best known for adapting Ian Fleming’s James Bond char- acter for the screen, for producing Thunderball (1965) and Never Say Never Again (1983). Thunderball was and remains the most successful film of the franchise as well as being one of the most successful films of all time.
