Whether you are interested in toy vehicles or real buses, this book offers a feast for the eyes. In fact, before looking at this book, I never realized just how many bus replicas have been produced. An astounding array of model buses from some 20 nations - diecast, plastic, tin-plate, and cardboard - awaits you; the material is extremely captivating. But beware, if you do not already collect model buses, you may find yourself doing so after perusing this book; the pursuit can become an obsession. Also included are many antique and rare models one doesn't see all the time. Granted, not every model is included and the survey could be a little stronger regarding models from the former Soviet Union. Another area lacking are models and toys made by hand in developing countries; the few that are pictured are clay souvenirs from the Caribbean. As for the prices, just note that this book was published in the 1990s, when people paid outrageous sums for models, some of whose collectible value people nowadays would consider dubious at best. Nevertheless, this book has a lot to offer and I heartily recommend it to anyone with more than a passing interest in buses.
