Huge numbers of plastic toy cars were manufactured in Europe, America and Asia in the 1950 and 1960s. Interest in them has boomed over recent years, which has led to a buoyant auction market similar to that for die-cast and tinplate cars.
This book covers the models, the manufacturers and auction guide prices (in pounds sterling), making it essential reading for any collector.
Famous toy companies examined in this book include:
Brimtoy (Great Britain)
Gama (Germany)
Ingap (Italy)
Minialuxe (France)
Norev (France)
Paya (Spain)
Politoys (Italy)
Rico (Spain)
Siku (Germany)
Tri-ang (Great Britain)
The book features 250 photographs, most of them of plastic toy cars, each in mint condition and many with their original boxes. Other photographs feature illustrations taken from catalogues and from contemporary advertisements.
