"We are very
pleased to announce the arrival from Derbyshire of a new, very substantial,
one-owner collection of plastics from the late 1950's and early 60's, both 54mm
and 60mm scale. Whether you collect by maker (most British makers are represented)
or thematically (from Arabs to Zulus), there are many interesting and unusual
figures to whet your collecting appetite!"
Proving I'm not
just a pretty face, and with thanks to Adrian Little for the heads-up, this
image from the recent Vectis auctions
(and I downloaded all the catalogues when telling you about them, but missed it!)
confirms both the scrambler type and board-game origins of the motorcycles I
hinted at when we looked at them a couple of posts ago! The Glevum Series 'Dirt Track Racing for Motor Cycles' seems to be the
source of a six-set, paint wise.
Nice finds! I find that I cannot stop salivating.
ReplyDeleteNot finds Jan! It's the catalogue shot from Vectis auction . . . I wish!
