The miniature car is one of the most popular and enduring toys, almost as old as the machines that inspired them. Some are veritable miracles of technology in miniature, with functioning headlamps and front-wheel drive; others are lovingly crafted to a fine level of detail, with real leather seats and handpainted finishes. Some rare older models are today literally worth their weight in gold, especially if the packaging is intact. Collectible Miniature Cars is a charming trip through the world of the toy car, featuring over five hundred photographs of cars, trucks, and utility vehicles, both vintage and modern, from all the leading toy car producers, such as Dinky, Marklin, Bing, Schuco and Meccano. The book is divided into themed chapters covering family cars, sport coupes, racing cars, and utility vehicles. Each photograph is accompanied by a brief yet informative text giving the key features of every toy, and the volume is completed by a buyer's guide. This attractively designed book is the perfect choice for all toy car collectors, and those who have never quite forgotten the joy of owning a brand-new, shiny miniature car, and imagining the hours of pleasure it will bring. * Over 500 items reproduced life-sized in color in each title * Features both rare and frequently found models * Includes bibliographies and useful addresses to find out more

Download or read book Mini-RC-Cars written by Hans-Peter Sollik and published by Verlag für Technik und Handwerk. This book was released on with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1987, the first Mini-Z models came onto the market, small remote-controlled car models for racing fun (not only) in your own living room. Since then, the mini-RC cars in 1:24 scale and smaller, especially as ready-to-run models, have offered an inexpensive entry into sophisticated car modelling. In this book, Hans-Peter Sollik presents five selected models, from monster trucks to Formula 1 racers, showing the construction and possible uses of these smart RC cars. What is included in the usual scope of delivery, which motor, and chassis equipment can be considered, which battery technology and which remote control components, are described by the author as well as the wide range of optical and technical improvements: tuning. Anyone who wants to get to know RC car modelling and gain initial experience with miniature models, perhaps in order to switch to larger scales later, will find the right instructions in this book.

Book Synopsis Miniature Ship Models by : Paul Jacobs
Download or read book Miniature Ship Models written by Paul Jacobs and published by Seaforth Publishing. This book was released on 2008-05-30 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first comprehensive history of how the 1:1200 scale and its 1:1250 continental equivalent became accepted as the modern standard for miniature ship models. The origins can be traced back to the first years of the twentieth century and their use as identification aids by the military during the First World War, but when peace came the manufacturers aimed their increasingly sophisticated products at collectors, and acquiring, modifying or scratch-building miniature ship models has been an avidly pursued hobby ever since. This book charts the commercial rise and fall of the manufacturers, and the advancing technology that produces ever more detailed and accurate replicas. The author - himself a lifetime collector and builder of models - looks at the products of each manufacturer, past and present, rating their quality and suggesting why some are regarded as more collectible than others. But the book deals with more than off-the-shelf models, covering subsidiary issues like painting, modifying and diorama settings, and is illustrated throughout with many of the finest examples of the genre. The combination of fascinating background information with stunning visual presentation will make this book irresistible to any collector or enthusiast.

Witness diminutive cars like the Bond Minicar and the BMWIsetta introduced to fuel-deprived postwar Europe, and continue through the classic 1950s microcars and ’70s subcompacts, right up to today’s tiny cars and electric vehicles (EVs) fromthe likes of Smart and Fiat. In addition to iconic curiosities like the frog-like Goggomobil Dart, the futuristic Sebring Vanguard Citicar, and the three-wheeled Reliant Robin, you’ll read about more familiar classics like the VW Beetle, MiniCooper, and Crosley Super Sport. Other manufacturers represented include Honda, Datsun, Mitsubishi, Trabant, Heinkel, Renault, and Messerschmitt, to name a few. Each car is profiled with an entertaining and informative history and a fact box. Imagery includes archival photos, period ads, and modern photography.
