Important book for model car lovers

The Golden book of Model Cars seems to be an important book for model car lovers. Slotcars made in Europe is the first book about slot cars. The book (hardcover) counts 128 pages and is self-published by the author at the end of 2003. The book was frequently offered in 2004 on Ebay for 75 Euro.

Book is rather costly

The quality of the photographs is poor and the compositions do not show creativity. All the models that are shown come from the collection of the author.
The general information is written in Italian and English, but the short stories about the manufacturers is sadly not translated into English. Models of forty-two European brands are listed.
The book is rather costly but a very interesting read for slot car enthusiasts who are interested in the history of slot cars.
