  • Meccano Magazine: Boys' Toys and the Popularization of Science In
    BJHS: Themes 3: 129–146, 2018. © British Society for the History of Science 2018. This is an Open Access article, distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution licence (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), which permits unrestricted re-use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. doi:10.1017/bjt.2018.5 First published online 12 April 2018 Meccano Magazine: boys’ toys and the popularization of science in early twentieth- century Britain PETER J. BOWLER* Abstract. Meccano Magazine began publishing in 1916 to advertise the popular children’s con- struction set. By the 1920s it had expanded into a substantial, well-illustrated monthly that eventually achieved a circulation of seventy thousand. Under the editorship of the popular- science writer Ellison Hawks it now devoted approximately half of its pages to real-life technol- ogy and some natural science. In effect, it became a popular-science magazine aimed at teenage and pre-teen boys. This article explores Hawks’s strategy of exploiting interest in model build- ing to encourage interest in science and technology. It surveys the contents of the magazine and shows how it developed over time. It is argued that the material devoted to real-life science and technology was little different to that found in adult popular-science magazines of the period, raising the possibility that Meccano Magazine’s large circulation may explain the comparative lack of success of the adult publications. ‘Meccano’ was the name given to a construction set invented by Frank Hornby at the beginning of the twentieth century.

  • The Exclusively Gerry Anderson Collection
    THE EXCLUSIVELY GERRY ANDERSON COLLECTION The Desire To Collect Television Dinky Toys The beginning of any diecast model begins with love and adoration of a particular design, shape and feel of an item. However, the appeal of owning a model becomes far greater when that particular model is from your favourite television show! Indeed, this is how I fell in love with Dinky’s ‘Gerry Anderson’ range of toys. Indeed, seventeen models, from the world of Gerry Anderson, were produced at Binns Road around the mid-sixties to late seventies. (Sixteen models if one considers ‘Stripey The Magic Mini,’ from the magazine ‘Candy’, as not a televised Anderson production. Additionally, one could also argue only fifteen models were produced, if counting Dinky 101 and 106 as the same Thunderbird 2 model.) Thus, many collectors around the age of forty to sixty have fond memories of these toys and how detailed and fun they were to play with in the school yard! Sadly, at the time, no one really predicted the demise of Dinky, especially since they were so popular. As a child around the age of five to ten years, I knew nothing about the difficult economics in producing a toy, or competing markets such as American produced Hot Wheels, that ultimately brought the company to its closure in November 1979. The pleasurable desire to own a long-lost collectable toy from the past is akin to a day-dream desire. This deception is in reality an attempt to recapture a person’s youth. Hillis, Petit & Epley (2006. P. 40) state pleasure comes from the possibility ‘that both memories and objects are enduring.’ Furthermore, Brown (Hills, 2002, p.

    THE EXCLUSIVE GERRY ANDERSON COLLECTION BLOG 2 REVISITING DINKY 100 Continuing the discussion regarding Gerry Anderson related Dinky Toys, I wish to discuss a particular first issue Dinky, number 100, Lady Penelope’s FAB 1. Sure, the first issue has the distinctive pink stripes on the canopy. Additionally, first issues have concentric circle wheels with raised central point detailed hubs. The model is all housed in a beautiful rectangular box. Yet, around the same time of issue, perhaps a little later, the same model was released, with the only difference being the ‘star shaped’ wheel hubs. The version for auction at QDT, and pictured left, is such an example, with rocket and four red harpoons still sealed in a bag, stapled to the colourful card plinth. Note too, this example has the rare French instructions leaflet, for models exported to nearby France. FAB 1 has always been a favourite piece with many Anderson collectors, since the actual shape of the car closely resembles the original used in the series. Time after time, other manufacturers such as Corgi, Vivid Imaginations and even Product Enterprise, have tried to recapture the wonderful lines and shape designed by the late genius designer, Derek Meddings. Chris Jelly, in his article ‘The Fabulous One,’ from page 14 of Meccano Magazine February ​ ​ ​ ​ 1967, writes: It is, in my opinion, by far the best and most amazing toy ever to have appeared in the Dinky range or, for that matter, in any comparable range. It is, however, primarily a toy ..but it is a toy ………… only because its prototype does not exist in real life.
