Airliner Models

Containing more than 800 photographs, Airliner Models chronicles the use of professionally made airliner models in the marketing of air travel since 1919. For model collectors, the airliner type, makers name, scale, approximate age and the materials used are detailed for each model illustrated.  A short history of significant model-making companies is covered.  

With the onset of online bookings and the closure of airline offices and travel agents, the use of models is fast vanishing forever. The focus of this book is to preserve this fascinating era when models were a significant marketing tool. To ensure that these models, at least in photographic form, survive as a record for future generations,  Anthony Lawler  has spent eight years assembling the information and photographs to complete this book.

Continand mai mult de 800 de fotografii, Airliner Models relateaza utilizarea modelelor de avioane fabricate profesional in comercializarea calatoriilor aeriene incepand cu 1919. Pentru colectionarii de modele, tipul avionului, numele producatorilor, scara, varsta aproximativa si materialele utilizate sunt detaliate pentru fiecare model ilustrat. . Este prezentata o scurta istorie a companiilor de modelare semnificative. Odata cu aparitia rezervarilor online si inchiderea birourilor aeriene si a agentiilor de turism, utilizarea modelelor dispare rapid pentru totdeauna.
