French Military Dinky Toys Reviews

'This useful collector's guide lists and illustrates each of the French-produced military Dinky Toys together with British military Dinky Toys issues in France, rounded off with some extracts from French Dinky Toys catalogues.' -- Best of British Magazine, June 2023
'For the hard-core collector who's keen to understand the full scope and scale of the Dinky Toys production in France, this book provides a truly invaluable source of reference. It should appeal equally to those of us who still get a warm and fuzzy feeling reminiscing about the toys that defined our childhood.' -- Toy Soldier Collector, September 2023
