"Originally invented in 1911, the Erector construction toy was patented in 1913, and became one of the most important and beloved children's toys of the 20th Century. Originally manufactured by the Mysto Manufacturing Co., the sets achieved wider fame under the Meccano and A.C. Gilbert brands. Gilbert manufactured the sets until the 1960s when the company went bankrupt, but the Erector set continues to be produced in the present day by Meccano, a subsidiary of Nikko. This Mysto Erector construction guide dates from the earliest era, approximately 1913-17, and shows some of the models one could build with the Mysto Company's No. 1 thru No. 8 building sets. Original copies of this booklet are impossible to find--in fact one recently sold on an internet auction site for over $500. This reproduction is over [33] pages long and has beautiful color covers. Although sightly reformatted, care has been taken to preserve the integrity of the text. This booklet is in the public domain; "Erector" and the "Erector Set" are trademarks of Meccano, S.A."--
'A lifetime of railway love distilled into a most beautiful volume' Lucy Worsley 'The most attractive, comprehensive and easily digestible history of the oldest railway system in the world' Michael Palin In 1825 the Stockton & Darlington company strode into history with the opening of the world's first public steam railway. What the S&DR had pioneered soon picked up speed, transforming lives and landscapes, connecting far-flung corners of the nation and creating its own distinctive environments and working worlds. This ambitious and lavishly illustrated volume brings the story of Britain's railways to life, spanning two centuries of achievement and change. Full of colour and incident, it is an exhilarating journey through time and space, revisiting favourite themes and introducing unfamiliar stories and places. With original and engaging entries on everything from dining saloons to collecting dogs, wartime salvage efforts and the iconic Rail Alphabet, Simon Bradley gives George Bradshaw's famous 19th century guide a run for its money in this fresh and distinctive chronicle of the making of Britain's railways.
Originally invented in 1911 by A.C. Gilbert, the Erector construction toy was patented in 1913. It went on to become one of the most important and beloved children's toys of the 20th Century, and inspired a generation of young people to design, build, and think like engineers. In the USA, the Mysto and later A.C. Gilbert Co. built dozens of distinct sets, allowing construction of bridges, towers, airplanes, and even robots and airships. After A.C. Gilbert went bankrupt in 1967, Erector was resurrected by the Gabriel Co. Today it continues to be produced by Meccano, a subsidiary of Nikko.
