Airfix by Arthur Ward
This title aims to enable everyone to relive the glory days of the Airfix plastic air forces (or tank fleets) and perhaps to pass the torch to their children. Photographs show the rare and collectible kits as well as the best sellers, with illustrations of the packets, box art, adverts in 1960s and 1970s magazines, and a mass of period ephemera. The accompanying text charts the rise, fall and rise again of Airfix models. This nostalgic reminder of kits long vanished has with a happy ending: Airfix are now re-releasing 40 kits a year, bringing back some not seen for 20 years.
Arthur Ward is Chief Executive of Big Design, a design studio with an impressive list of corporate clients from the Civil Aviation Authority to the National Maritime Museum.
