airbook.JPG (91221 bytes)The 50th Anniversary of Airfix is celebrated in this (227mm x 282mm or
     9''x11'') hard-backed booked written by Mr Arthur Ward.

    Half a century of plastic model kit production is explored and documented,
    from the very first Airfix kit, the legendary Ferguson tractor, to the most
    recent EE Lightning.

    Superb studio photographs show all the obscure and highly collectable kits,
    box art illustrations, 1970's magazines, and adverts from the 1960's.

    This book includes interviews with those people who, over the years have
    played a major role in developing Airfix into a household name.

The list includes Mr Ralph Ehrmann (former chairman), Mr John Grey (former managing director), Mr Frank Martin (present chief Executive) and Mr Trevor Snowden (Research and  Development engineer since 1986).

All this contributes a wealth of information that recaptures the magic of the modelling world, and makes it a must for all modelling enthusiasts.

192 pages with colour photos on almost all of them.
Appendix include;
One, The entire kit catalogue (new tooling only)
Two, Additional parts
Three, Tailgunner' Survey, Readers Poll results
Four, The top 20 collectable kits
Five, The all time best selling Airfix kits

This book is an absolute must for Airfix enthusiasts or anyone interested in Airfix.
