19867940Apollo Beach FL: M.A.P. Company 1986. First Edition First Printing. Original wraps. Very Good. 5 3/4 X 8 1/2 Inches. 120 PP. Stated "First Edition" on the copyright page. Although the author states this to be the "only" book on the market written for the toy soldier hobbyist we have not been able to verify this. That said this is obviously an important guide for the toy soldier creator and/or collector. While Wales' spelling and grammar are interesting to say the least his instructions for casting in metel and rubber seem clear and concise. Illustrated throughout with B/W photographs. Original comb-binding complete and intact. Includes sections on "Over Seas Companys" selling toy soldiers and supplies as well as listings for exhibitions and clubs in the United States. Stain to lower front cover. OCLC locates "0" copies and very scarce in commerce. M.A.P. Company unknown

1901129531Sydney: Angus and Robertson 1901. First Edition. Hardcover. Fair. Sydney Angus and Robertson 1901. Quarto x 64 pages with an illustration plus 8 plates but lacking the colour frontispiece called for by Dornbusch. Modern binder's cloth with the front panel of the original green wrapper printed in red mounted on the front board; text block tide-marked near the head of the spine with the plates a little stained; some discolouration and foxing heavy in places; minor signs of age and use; a decent copy of an absolute rarity. This history of these two cavalry units from their foundation through to the end of the Boer War is 'undoubtedly a regimental record but it is something more - it is an attempt to explain and to some extent combat the unreasoning prejudice which has grown up as a result of the South African campaign against the cavalry arm of the service. On this point Mr. Wilkinson says:- "It is my purpose to show not only that cavalry regiments like the New South Wales Lancers have done equal yeoman service to the Empire in the South African struggle with their comrades in the other branches of the service but that they have done infinitely more as the pioneers of the cavalry movement in Australia to enhance the value of our defence force and to shew the world of what fighting stuff our men are made"' from a review in the 'Daily Telegraph' 12 October 1901. The last 18 pages contain numerous appendices including nominal and casualty rolls. <p>Dornbusch 126; Fielding and O'Neill page 126. Angus and Robertson hardcover
