Opis produktu

This book is the first comprehensive history of how the 1:1200 scale and its 1:1250 continental equivalent became accepted as the modern standard for miniature ship models. The origins can be traced back to the first years of the twentieth century and their use as identification aids by the military during the First World War but when peace came the manufacturers aimed their increasingly sophisticated products at collectors and acquiring modifying or scratchbuilding miniature ship models has been an avidly pursued hobby ever since. This book charts the commercial rise and fall of the manufacturers and the advancing technology that produces ever more detailed and accurate replicas. The author himself a lifetime collector and builder of models looks at the products of each manufacturer past and present rating their quality and suggesting why some are regarded as more collectible than others. But the book deals with more than offtheshelf models covering subsidiary issues like painting modifying and diorama settings and is illustrated throughout with many of the finest examples of the genre. The combination of fascinating background information with stunning visual presentation will make this book irresistible to any collector or enthusiast.
