Big Boys' Toys : Blokes and their magnificent obsessions order quantity
  +   -
 
NZ$ 29.99 each
Paperback
Author: Scott McGregor
In Stock: 6
Men grow old but they don't always grow up. In fact, often the only difference between men and boys is the size of their toys ...All over the country, in sheds, hangers and harbours, a silent army of dedicated other halves has been tinkering away restoring war horses and work horses, pleasure craft and mean machines to their gleaming and gargantuan former glory. At last, in Big Boys Toys, these blokes step out into the daylight to be counted, to stand up for what's big and noisy and leaking oil everywhere. Centurion tanks, tug boats, paddle steamers, super tractors, top-fuellers, flying tricycles: you name it, they're fixing it, or painting it, tuning it or replacing the brake pads - once again.Packed with photos and vital statistics, Big Boys Toyslifts the dust sheet and scrapes back the paint to uncover the whos, the hows and, most mysteriously, the whys, of oversized boys and their magnificent toys.

A History of Meccano Ltd, 1901–1979

Few names can be so calculated to stir the imagination and evoke fond memories as those of Meccano, Dinky and Hornby. Familiar to virtually every twentieth-century western child – and to a good proportion of those in other parts of the world – the construction sets, toy cars and trains that for three quarters of a century or so came off the Liverpool production lines of Meccano Ltd provided endless hours of play and virtually unlimited possibilities for the imagination. Today, almost thirty years after the original company finally closed its doors the continued interest in these products is manifest in a burgeoning number of exhibitions and auctions, in untold numbers of collectors’ clubs operating on an international scale, and in a seemingly endless flow of literature.

Most of the existing writing, however, is concerned primarily with detail, often highly technical, of the ... more
