    Learn about the International Model Car Builders’ Museum! e International Model Car Builders’ Museum was founded in 1987 to preserve the history of the scale vehicle hobby. Before the Museum opened its doors, early leaders of the Museum spent years acquiring historical information, letters between hobby person- alities, collections of the famed magazines of the Sixties as well as obtaining models built by historic builders whose craftsmanship helped dene the hobby. From the earliest days of the Museum, one chief goal of the eort was to gather together the largest possible collection of information, models, artifacts and documents so that hobbyists and schol- ars, decades in the future, would have a central place to research the wonderful history of the great model car hobby. In 2000, the Museum moved to a 1,200 square foot facility organized by subject matter, and a very substantial in Sandy, Utah. At the new location, there was nally collection of vintage and contemporary paints, adhesives, enough room to unpack the many historic items previously putties and Auto World items were nally unpacked and purchased or donated. For the rst time, the library was placed in cabinets. e Museum also hosts a bank of ling organized and thousands of magazines were placed in cabinets (lled with thousands of printed items), dozens of archival plastic sleeves and then stored in protective binders. event videos, plaques, air boxes, Augie Hiscano and Mike Also, models from both famed and obscure modelers were Johnson models, and the Dave Shuklis collection and more. e Museum features the famed Oakland Roadster Show Diorama and received, by donation in 2009, the incredible “TV Merc” from the family of legendary builder John Estlow who passed away before he could visit the Museum.

Tiny Tootsietoys are big with collectors By Eric Bryan Almost any American who lived in the 20th century will know the name “Tootsietoy.” Most famous for producing diecast toy cars, Tootsietoy continues making toys to this day. The diecast vehicles came in the familiar pocket-car size, but Tootsietoy also produced models in larger scales. Readers who shopped at five-and-dime stores will remember being able to buy some of the Tootsietoy cars loose from wooden trays, and in the 1960s and ‘70s the smallest ones were available in blister-packs. Tootsietoy’s origins go back to the Dowst Company, founded circa 1877 in Chicago by Above: Water Tower Truck, 1927–33. Recent Charles O. Dowst.

  • Newsletter Vol. 2
    CASTLE STUDIES GROUP NEWSLETTER Number 2 AUTUMN 1988 Dear Member First of all, may I apologise for the belated appearance of this Newsletter, which has become the casualty of a growing pile of paperwork in Exeter University. Second, you will immediately see that its contents are not exactly as anticipated when last year's Newsletter was produced. As a result of discussion among the Steering Committee, which had an. informal meeting after the first day of the conference at Leeds in May of this year, the original plan to publish the Register of Members separately has been abandoned. Instead, the information collected on numerous questionnaires between 1986 and 1988 5s presented here, in digested form, in the second Newsletter together wit a an up-dated list of members The questionnaire enclosed Invites you to send information to appear in next year's Newsletter, in conjunction with the publications list which is provided by John Kenyon, In this way, each Newsletter will provide an accumulating body of information.

Please remember to send local/regional/national/ international news which you think might be of interest, together with dates and venues of meetings or courses (adult education tutors please note!) which members might wish to attend.
