Reminds me of my days back in primary school..we would look forward to lunchtime, so that we could play with our toy cars in the playground. Thanks Paul. 👍🇦🇺 Jim.
1978... Miałam 12 lat i moje zainteresowanie modelami Matchbox powoli spadało. Ale kiedy widzę te piękne, stare broszury dziś w wieku 50 lat, lubię myśleć o tamtych czasach. 😁 Mój drogi Pawle, dziękuję ci bardzo za tę wspaniałą podróż w czasie i za wiele wspomnień, które do mnie przynosisz. Ty i twoja rodzina spędzicie miły weekend i będziecie zdrowi. Pozdrowienia z Cuxhaven. Paul 😁👍🏼🇵🇱👋🏼🇩🇪👍🏼😁 1978... I was 12 years old and my interest in Matchbox models slowly decreased. But when I see these beautiful old brochures today at the age of over 50 years, I like to think back to those times. 😁 My dear Paul, thank you very much for the wonderful journey through time and the many memories you bring back to me. You and your family have a nice weekend and stay healthy. Greetings from Cuxhaven. Paul 😁👍🏼🇵🇱👋🏼🇩🇪👍🏼😁 1978... Da war ich 12 Jahre alt und mein Interesse für Matchbox Modelle ließ langsam nach. Wenn ich heute mit über 50 Jahren diese schönen alten Prospekte sehe, denke ich jedoch gerne an die Zeiten zurück. 😁 Mein lieber Paul, vielen Dank für die wunderbare Zeitreise und die vielen Erinnerungen die du mir damit zurück bringst. Dir und deiner Familie ein schönes Wochenende und bleibt gesund. Gruß aus Cuxhaven. Paul 😁👍🏼🇵🇱👋🏼🇩🇪👍🏼😁
As always thank you for taking us down memory lane! These were when I was in my collecting peak . I was 11. I have many from my youth and they are in a display case like new
Great video Paul seen a couple amongst that lot that I still need to restore. Today’s casts are not a patch on the good old casts we had as kids , George 🚗🚗🚗👍
I remember some of these cars sadly i'm 42 and has put them into the bin as many of my toys or has sold them very cheap . Now i regret my move since vintage toys are in high demand and are very expensive i would have been rich somehow . Anyway proof is that toys are used to play with and not be a collector item like many people with a twisted mind bought many new toys just into gaining money . I still cannot understand how some of these 70's , 80's are "new" sealed and bought on E-bay for ridiculous prices is beyond me . Similar goes for Lego i cannot understand nor believe people that are selling sealed vintage sets today ?! The hell with these people . When you buy something it is to open it and enjoy it not to have a money obscure sheme behind . Gah! how i hate such people .
Defiraphi I am neither I am a car junkie who not olny goes crazy over old antiques and classics in a 1 to 1 scale, but over a period of 25 years have built up a collection of various scales of cars and trucks and made a museum in minuture, 90 percent of my collection is displayed and like I said it's not played with nor is most of my collection sitting in their boxes or not cracked open some are still in the original boxes and blister packs I'm not sure why I make that determanation sometimes and I'm sure as hell not into it for the money I'm into it beacuse I'm a car junkie espically the oldies, And I find that these die casts and models do still need a certian amount of care just like real cars do. Just on a smaller scale!.btw I have cars from 1/87 to 1/18.
Sad to say but, by the 70s, most of the Matchbox cars were junk. Even the catalogue had been "modernised", replacing the artwork with bland photos. Trying to follow HotWheels killed Matchbox; the fine miniature replicas of the 50s and 60s replaced by "futuristic", generic rubbish. I suppose, those who grew up with Superfasts and never knew the original 1-75 series were happy enough but I lost interest in about 1970/71 and stopped collecting the small scale cars. Thar catalogue has survived in better condition than most of the models from that period. 👍

You can see here the matchbox trying to emulate Hotwheels, I think big mistake for them.
Thank you very much
