 Playboy Magazine, which had had a long association with James Bond,  ran a competition in the magazine for a reader to become a Bond Girl  in 1980. The winner was Robbin Young (qv) and she appeared in the  flower shop scene when motorbikes crash into the florists front  window. Playboy published some of the James Bond short stories by  Ian Fleming (I) (qv) including "The Hildebrand Rarity" in 1960 and  the James Bond character was seen reading a copy of the magazine in  _On Her Majestys Secret Service (1969)_ (qv).
