Sinopsis

The Collector?s Guide to Plastic Toy Soldiers, 1947-87 was the first-ever book to illustrate the tremendous range and scope of plastic toy soldiers from across the World.Published in 1987 in a limited edition of just 1,000 signed copies it sold out very quickly and, since then, has become a 'Holy Grail' publication for collectors. Twenty five years later it remains the only single-volume study of plastic toy soldiers from 'The Golden Age' .This newly-scanned reprint includes the whole of the original book, an article by George Kearton written for 'Plastic Warrior' magazine several years ago, a new introduction by him and an extract from 'Old Toy Soldier Newsletter' with details of his Toy Soldier Museum in Lancashire which was open from 1983 to 1986.Also included is: early example of George Kearton?s mail order listings, reminiscences of collecting plastic toy soldiers before the Internet and toy soldier shows specially written by Peter Cole, co-founder toy soldier makers 'Replicants'.
