About this product

Product Information

In 2009, Airfix, the most famous plastic model construction kit company in the world, celebrates its 70th birthday. Founded in 1939 by Hungarian Nicholas Kove, Airfix holds a unique appeal for boys (and girls) of all ages and has been part of the fabric of childhood for generations. Packed with photos of the kits from the 1950s to the present,The Boys' Book of Airfix is a nostalgic look at one of the greatest brands ever. In addition to the history behind the models, from the first Airfix kit - a model tractor - right up to today's exciting Doctor Who releases, it tells the story of the dramatic twists and turns of the Airfix saga. In the autumn of 2006 it looked as if the great name might disappear for ever when its owners languished in receivership, only for the company to be heroically rescued by Hornby. If you were ever responsible for sending an Airfix Messerschmidt to a fiery doom from your bedroom window, this book is for you!

I used to build Airfix models in the 70s & 80s and I was amazed/bamboozled with the amount of detail in this book. Probably too much for my liking as I did skip some sections. Ideal at the £5 price point I bought it for but less so if you paid full price.

A wonderful book for Airfix fans
I love this book. If like me you made Airfix kits in the 60's and 70's this is a must have book which I can spend hours reading or just looking at the pictures. Detailing the history of the iconic Airfix brand I can thoroughly recommend this book.

Aifix Book For A Trip Back In Time!!
This book has to be one of the best ever printed, for any child who grew up in the 60s of 70s. Once you start reading it, you are automatically taken back in time!!! - Who needs a Tardis when you have this!!! A must for anyone, who enjoys model making, from the past.......and present.
