Media Reviews
'This useful collector's guide lists and illustrates each of the French-produced military Dinky Toys together with British military Dinky Toys issues in France, rounded off with some extracts from French Dinky Toys catalogues.' * Best of British Magazine, June 2023 *
'For the hard-core collector who’s keen to understand the full scope and scale of the Dinky Toys production in France, this book provides a truly invaluable source of reference. It should appeal equally to those of us who still get a warm and fuzzy feeling reminiscing about the toys that defined our childhood.' * Toy Soldier Collector, September 2023 *
