Miller's Collecting Diecast Vehicles (Miller's Collector's Guides)

Whether motivated by childhood nostalgia for those beloved Matchbox and Dinky cars, or by a desire to build up a handsome collection of vintage and veteran models, Miller’s Collecting Diecast Vehicles is the essential guide to these miniature autos. It presents this popular collecting area in an informative and in-depth manner, showing more than 320 items in color, and covering all the key makes: Matchbox, Corgi, Dinky, Lledo, and more. Divided into a chronological survey of maker and then a thematic section detailing different kinds of vehicles such as police cars, taxis, and racing cars, it includes advice on assessing identity, age, and condition; how to tell if an item is genuine; and care and display. A glossary with UK and US terms and a directory of auction houses, museums, and toy fairs is included.

I am an avid 1:18 scale diecast car collector for over ten years now. I purchased the Miller's collecting Diecast vehicles (Peter Rixon) book. This book is not what I was expecting according to the one rating from the previous person. It's not worth the money whatsoever! So, please don't waste your money like I did!!! The best 1:18 scale diecast car collecting book ever published was Cast-Car Publication Issue #3 American Muscle Ertl Collectibles. Thank goodness I didn't it pay the $62.52 dollars for my hardback copy. I only lost $13.00 instead! $13.00 dollars or not, I hate throwing money away for "JUNK!" Miller's book shows junk toys and is not for the serious adult collector!

Everything went wonderfully. Thank you very much.

Great Product Very Fast Thank You 5 Star
