Über den Autor
Mick Bruce was given his first toy car, a Corgi 474 musical Ford ice cream van, by his parents for his third birthday. Disliking the new fast but plasticy toys swamping shops from 1973, he began searching local shops for 1960s stock street cars with rubber tires to collect. He restarted adding to his childhood collection in 1997 and has been an active participant in online diecast chat forums since 2004.
