Description: This gloriously illustrated, large-format volume celebrates 50 years of Airfix plastic modeling kits. Hundreds of superb color photos show all the obscure and highly collectible kits, as well as the best-sellers, with illustrations of packaging, box art, advertisements from "Airfix" magazine, and a mass of period ephemera. The lively text charts the rise, fall, and rise again of Airfix models. It's a nostalgic reminder of kits long vanished, but with a happy ending: Airfix is now re-releasing 40 kits a year, bringing back some models not seen in two decades. Airfix has all the information important to collectors, from complete range listings to production dates. But this book is not just for collectors. Packed with color photos of every model Airfix ever built, this is for anyone who has ever stuck their fingers together with model cement or watched as an Airfix Messerschmitt plummeted to its fiery end from a bedroom window.
