When Mattel's Hotwheels toy cars exploded onto the market in 1968, venerable Matchbox Toys met the challenge with its Superfast line. The successful result is now presented in the largest book on Matchbox Toys ever produced - so big it is two volumes that celebrate 35 years of Matchbox Superfast production with over 7000 color photos and over 10,000 listed variations! The detailed, beautiful photographs are a great assistance to collectors for identification and color reference.

The Variation Listings, found in Volume 1, are arranged alphanumerically by product numbers, making location and cross-referencing easy. Photos are arranged by major product lines, with Basic Models in Volume 1, and everything else from Adventure Pack to White Rose Collectibles arranged alphabetically in Volume 2. Superfast models from late 2004 and early 2005 also appear in Volume 2.

Each photo includes the product number and name for easy reference to the Variation Listings. To further aid in identification there are helpful indexes by MAN number and model names (actual base names), as well as a general alphabetical index. The model variations have current market prices for each variation.

Taken together, these two great books are a must for Matchbox collectors everywhere, a monumental effort by one of the world's greatest authorities!

The shelves sag away from the wall overtime
Color: White, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 15.7in, Color: White, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 15.7in
Although the wood quality and finish of the shelf are clean and well-made, the main issue is that the shelves begin to sag over time while holding around 10 pounds, even though the product listing claims they can support up to 20 pounds. They may perform better on a brick wall, but on drywall you should be cautious. To fix the problem, I had to purchase floating shelf brackets for support, which solved the sagging issue. However, this defeats the purpose of the “floating” aesthetic. Since the shelf is in my bedroom, I can overlook it, but I personally wouldn’t install these in a common area if I wanted a clean floating look.

Looks nice, easy to install
Color: Rustic Brown, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 22in
This shelf is lightweight, looks nice, and was easy to install. It comes with a little level to help you install it properly. There are plenty of mounting holes to choose from, so it is easy to screw it directly into a stud, or to just use holes that are convenient for you. It comes with a plethora of mounting hardware. I mounted mine a bit high up and chose to mount it upside down so that I wouldn't see the three screws that hold the shelf to the mounting bracket.

Stylish storage that actually works
Size: 31.5 Inch, Color: Rustic Brown, Size: 31.5 Inch, Color: Rustic Brown
I love this shelving unit so much—it’s both functional and really attractive. We’re currently using it for Lego storage in our playroom, but it still feels elevated and blends nicely with the rest of the room’s decor. It’s a great balance of practical and stylish. The shelves offer plenty of space and the overall size is perfect. It’s also super sturdy, well-made, and was easy to put together. A great option if you need storage but don’t want to sacrifice the look of your space.

Great for creating open shelving rather than adding cabinetry
I purchased two of the 24 inch shelves to create a coffee nook in my kitchen. They are very high-quality, attractive, were easy to install, and are sturdy. These shelves are a great alternative to having to add cabinetry to store items.
