This book offers
a great insight in the most renowned Spanish figure toy-lines from the 60s, 70s
and the 80s. In 92 pages, the author writes about 7 different figure lines:
Madelman, Geyperman, Airgam Boys, Playmobil/Famobil, Comansi’s indians and
cowboys, Comanboys and Montaplex.
Very
amusing to read, this book is something halfway between an informative book (handbook)
and a collection of memories. There are many personal stories and anecdotes
that make the reading easier and give the needed background to understand
certain things that might have changed since them.
The book
comes with many pictures (in colour) to illustrate certain lines and pieces,
and it’s available in Bubok for 12,50 Euros + shipping costs or 3,50 Euros as
eBook.
“La Edad de Oro…” is on its way to become a “best-seller” among the books
dealing with toys written in Spanish: many collectors, nostalgic people and toy-lovers already have their own!
