DIECAST TOY CARS OF THE 50′S & 60′S
A new book called “Diecast Toy Cars of the 1950s and 1960s” has just been released by Andrew Ralston. This collectors guide provides a comprehensive overview of vintage diecast toy models on what has become an increasingly popular hobby over the last 25 years.
The book provides a fascinating insight into some of the major names such as Dinky Toys, Corgi Toys and Matchbox (Great Britain), Solido (France), Tekno (Denmark) and Tootisetoy (USA) plus other more obscure brands from Europe, Japan, Israel and even Argentina.
The 128-page book has 300 photographs of rare examples of the diecast toys plus colourful illustrations from catalogues and period trade advertisements. The book can be ordered via all bookshops or at www.veloce.co.uk
