Oxford Diecast A Journey Through Time

A Journey through UK diecast manufacturing history

Fascinating read - couldn't put it down. Grammar and punctuation was non-existent, but Taff's writing style is very engaging. I had not previously realised just how important Oxford Diecast was to the UK diecast manufacturing industry. Before production was finally moved to China, the factory in Wales was still using machines inherited from Corgi as well as machines acquired from Lesney/Matchbox and even machines acquired from Lledo. Literally the whole history of diecast vehicle production in the UK was brought together in one place, so the pedigree of Oxford Diecast models is second to none. The book also has lots of nuggets and anecdotes about every aspect of production, and also acts as a pictorial reference guide to every model produced up to the date it was originally published. A thoroughly good read and valuable reference source for any UK diecast collector. Ian

Great arrived in good condition. Lots of great information.
