The Encyclopedia of Matchbox Toys: 1947-2001

More about early years than 70s

Great

Bought this as a gift for a young man who loves cars. Pictures are well done and the color is esquisite. also apears to be a great reference if your into match box cars.

great book for my hobby

I was expecting a chronological order of toys as they came out but that is not the case. About the last one third of the encyclopedia is organized in a manner that obviously suits the author but makes it very difficult to find all the toys that came out in 1953 for example. You can find a group of fire trucks issued from say 1951 to 1963 and the pages to find the pictures all listed out and another list for volvo for certain dates and the pages to find each one scattered throughout. Not the organization that I expected but lots of nice pictures.

Awesome book on these great toys with years made, specs, prices and history

Like Lovely pictures of models.Dislike no explanatory text. Admittedly there are pages of information in extremely small print at the end of the book.All in all a must for the serious collector!

Perfect

Remember the toys as a kid! Awesome memories!!! (Thank you "History Channel")

Completo quanto aos carros individuais. Faltaram mais informações dos acessórios, sets de construção, catálogos, pistas , etc.

DE VERDAD TODA UNA BIBLIA DE LOS MODELOS QUE HAN SALIDO CON SUS VARIANTES DE COLOR Y CON LOS PRECIOS DE LOS MISMOS. DE VERDAD DE MUCHA AYUDA ADEMAS DE TRAER FOTOGRAFIAS.

Love it ive just started my collection again and very useful reference book

Excelente livro para quem coleciona, guia bem completo. A única coisa que eu senti falta foi a classificação por ano. Recomendo.
