What a splendid book on toy castles! (Thanks for the mention)
ReplyDeleteIt is indeed, well worth looking out for…

Yes, a great looking book. Which of us of a certain age does not have happy memories of a toy fort and 54mm soldiers? Ah, nostalgia...
ReplyDeleteCheers,
David.
Happy memories indeed!

I got this book from Amazon at a bargain price - I was just amazed at how good it was and the author did an incredible job on such an obscure subject, but the castles are just stunning works of art. Quinn
ReplyDeleteThey are indeed. It is a great book to browse through on a miserable day.

Spot on David. The first present I can remember was a toy castle my dad had made. It made no difference that the 54mm figures i had were mix of guardsmen, knights and cowboys.
ReplyDeleteVery true Brian ! I recall using mine in such a way too.
