Four movies on 4 discs in the Dean Martin as Secret Agent Matt Helm Box Set. Discs are in great condition as I have only watched 2 of the movies. I never got around to watching the other two.

In 1965 Columbia Pictures acquired the film rights to eight Matt Helm novels.[4] A five film movie series was planned (four were made), which debuted with The Silencers. They were made to star Dean Martin, who co-produced with his Meadway-Claude Production company and received a partnership in the films. The series was produced by Irving Allen, who had once been the partner of James Bond film producer Albert R. "Cubby" Broccoli—the same man who had told Ian Fleming that his 007 novels were not "good enough for television," a point of contention between the two producers from 1958-1960 when they dissolved Warwick Films and went their separate ways.

The films used the name Matt Helm, his cover identity, plus book titles and some very loose plot elements, but otherwise the series bore no resemblance at all to the character, atmosphere, or themes of Hamilton's original books, nor to the hard-edged action of Bond. One reason was the attitude of the filmmakers that the only way to compete with the Bond films was to parody them.

READ THIS BEFORE BIDDING.
NO, I will NOT do GIN (Listia charges too many credits) and I will NOT shorten the days. I always have my auctions close on Sunday. If you win please have your verified address ready. I ship on Tuesdays, so if you don't have your address to me by Monday evening you will have to wait until the following Tuesday for me to ship your item. Since I am paying for shipping I will be sending this item out USPS Media Mail. That means mail time could (but not always) take as long as 10 days depending on where they are shipping to.
Questions are gladly answered. Just remember that stupid questions get smart-ass answers.
Thanks for looking and bidding.
