Plastic Toy Cars of the 1950s & 1960s by Andrew Ralston
Aims to provide introduction to the vast number of plastic cars made during 1950s and 1960s. This title includes more than 250 photographs of these toys. It also contains a glossary listing the names of many of the companies who were active in this field in 1950s and 1960s, together with some advertisements and catalogue illustrations.
Andrew Ralston received his first Dinky Toy car, a Riley, when he was about five years old, and ever since has been passionately interested in anything to do with cars. He has built up an extensive collection of models, with a preference for the more unusual items, and has written many articles on the subject for magazines in Britain and the USA. Educated at the Universities of Glasgow and Oxford, Andrew is a teacher by profession and has also published numerous textbooks on the English language. He lives in Glasgow with his wife, Hazel, and daughter, Miranda.
