In that case let me thank you for your efforts compiling and preserving that material.
As you see, the impact of your work among the paper community is very well received

Good finds, Reuben. I like the vintage lorries. Julian

I try. It started when I found a bunch more of those newspaper toys that were posted by Barnacle Press and then went on from there. There are still so many of those newspaper toys that need cleaning up and it is so tedious.

You have done a nice job on them. Several of your templates are in much better shape than the ones I have saved. Thank you

Thanks for doing this. I found a number of nice flying airplanes that I had not previously seen.

I certainly appreciate the effort you put in, thanks. Thought I'd seen these before, but some are new to me - nice to see the Lambretta in higher resolution. But I misspoke when I mentioned the Opel Rekord P2, that was some other website.

Still kind of disappointed though, nearly a century since 1930 yet no decent Stinson SR-3 to be found. Guess I'll have to kitbash one myself.

Whoa! There's some great old models there, a few I've been trying for years to find... the "Lali" cyclists and the French "Le Cabriolet" in particular. Thanks for the heads-up!

I'm not really a fan of "vintage papercrafts", since they are mainly 2-dimensional or very simple toys for the very young. However, one model here has potential - the Fina oil refinery. So I downloaded the original pictures, and used Photoshop to place them two at a time onto an A4 300dpi sheet. They will then print out to the same scale and make up into quite an interesting model.

Thanks for finding.
