Does anyone remember this set of books from Airfix during the 70s
Found this book while looking for something at moms over the Christmas hols. It brought back strong memories of the yellow tube of Britfix cement, finger prints on canopies and no weathering in sight. I thought that I was well kitted out with one of moms emery boards a hairgrip to stir the limited selection of Humbrol enamels and a couple of awful paint brushes from the newsagents. Oh such happy times.20171227_165804.jpg

That looks great. Unfortunately, I haven't got a thing left from my early days of modelling. So I have to search eBay and have a look at the old kits available for my trip down memory lane.
