Hardcover, 214 pages, ENG, 285 x 220 mm, dustjacket, greyish linen with goldcoloured imprint, illustrations in colour / b/w, in very good condition, . ISBN 9780902028920. This book will be of particular interest on several counts. Firstly, as essential reference material to all collectors who are, or may become, interested in the subject or may be able to prevent others mistakingly throwing out interesting and often valueable pieces. Secondly, it will have a warm appeal to those who have lived through enormous social and industrial changes and will see in these toys the machines and habits now gone. But above all the changes in cars, trains and aeroplanes make one realise just how much this century has achieved in terms of mechanical improvement. And here one must mention the ingenious novelty toys and the versatile stationary steam engines also featured in these pages. Illustrated. 1170 g. Seller Inventory # 60178
