With over 450 photographs, showing more than 1000 toy ships, this richly illustrated book covers the whole range of its subject: from the most expensive hand-painted tin masterpieces to the cheapest wooden creations. It is true to say that toys reflect their times.

Through catalogue research and close inspection of the actual toys, this book aims to place these fascinating antique pieces in to their historical context. Read more
