Dinky Toys... Just say the name and 60-year-olds start dreaming the orange DSs with cream-coloured roofs, Talbot-Lagos able to run across their bedroom floors, pocket-sized Simcas and other shiny trucks, semi-trailers and earth-moving machines that delighted their Christmas!
The author, Dominique Pascal, is one of them. He presents his long desired book: a Dinky Toys bible collecting as many models and colour variants as possible, classifying each car, each truck, each machine, according to its brand, from A to Z.
From the A of Alfa Romeo or Alpine to the V of Volvo and the W of Wayne or Willème. Bentley, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Citroën, Jaguar, Maserati, Renault, Simca, Triumph, Vespa, etc.
All these little marvels created since 1934 by Frank Hornby, the inventor of Meccano, are here!
Through these miniatures that delighted our childhood, you can also rediscover the entire history of the automobile, in a very "Fifties-Sixties" atmosphere.
