I was 10 in 1973, so this is a stroll down memory lane for me. I can remember leafing through Matchbox catalogues and racing cars along the ground in the playground at school.
Gosh. I had so many of these. Loads of memories flow back. So many hours of play with all these. I loved the rolamatics series, especially the ones with the bouncy engines or the pistons that could be seen moving up and down. How old I grew...lots of thanks for the upload from a French 51 year old kid.

Superfast were my life as a kid. Hotwheels were on the darkside. I had some nice corgi junior whizzwheels too. The old tod sweeny stock cars etc., Well, I say 'had'........I've bought them all again in the last couple of years. Got almost every superfast casting. Great vid!! Thanks. 😊
I was one when this was published but I recall many if these landed in my cardboard toy box! Many thanks again for taking me back to happy and simple times with the joy a little cardboard box could bring!
thanks for the memories. i was 13 then and i lived near the factory.my fathers mate used to work at the factory and used bring me a toy car every friday night.
Great memories. You were very lucky that you could get one car every Friday. I was 10 years old at the time and unfortunately such cars were an amazing treat. That's why I'm catching up now. Best wishes
Nad takim katalogiem siedziało się godzinami podziwiając nawet kolorystykę. Pod koniec lat 70 tych miałem pierwsze swoje modele - szary autobus piętrowy z takim kulkami na kołach i lila-fioletową ciężarówkę wożącą rury (dokładnie taka jak 4:31) Potem ojciec pojechał na kontrakt i miałem już więcej. Zapamiętałem piękno metalicznego lakieru w kolorze purpury i niezwykłość designu wnętrz oglądaną przez żółte szybki, w PRL nie było zabawek takiej tonacji. Piękne były też obrazki na pudełkach, dziś jako ilustrator jeszcze bardziej doceniam kunszt autora tych pędzących aut. Robisz świetną robotę. PZ!
Another great piece of history again Paul. I have just managed to get a 1969 catalogue. I would have been about 4 years old then, so just showing an interest in cars. Keep them coming Paul, thanks.
Now that brought back some memories!...Great vid. I dug out my old car case my Uncle made for me back in the day and discovered I've still got some of these models!
I have fond memories of playing with some of these cars when I was young. They’re all my dad’s from his youth (being that I’m 20), and along with his Redline Hot Wheels they got the gearhead bug started early! Thanks for making this cool video. 👍
By 1973 Matchbox was imitating Mattel's Hot Wheels. My childhood collection was almost entirely the 1/64 scale vehicles that looked realistic but this catalogue mostly has fantasy models in that size. My mom and Grandma must have been able to still find many new pre-1973 models to give me.
Matchbox had to kick it into high gear after Hot Wheels took the mini vehicle world by storm ! I was so into HW that I never even looked at Matchbox cars.... maybe I should have ! Thank you for an amazing look through that pamphlet ✌😎 If that is original wow what I find... I love old books & magazines that have some cool old ads ! This is pamphlet is loaded with gold ! I never thought they have such a wide range if unique & cool diecast vehicles ☺ Keep healthy and safe everyone...... 💜 💛 💚 💙 💖 🌏 💖 💙 💚 💛 💜
Eine wunderbare und liebevoll gemachte Dokumentation in Coronazeiten für den Matchboxfreund und -sammler. Zum Glück habe ich alle gezeigten Fahrzeuge der 1-75 Serie in meiner Sammlung. Danke fürs Teilen. LG Joachim
Nice one. Alot of Matchbox models I have never seen before. The big MX motorised models are something. I know the BM2 Ford prime mover, trailer, 3 tractors and factory set goes for big money, if complete.
dzięki stary jesteś niesamowity, za każdym razem kiedy oddaję się któremuś z moich hobby, a żona się sadzi że mam dorosnąć i się ogarnąć, pokazuję jej twój film i mówię jej że ma szczęście bo mogła by trafić na typa co zbiera resoraki
@@PaulRestorer -Strange as itbmay seem - I would collect those catalogues -That was one of my favorite catalogues - it was imatchboxesv best superfast colletion ! ... I think anyway !
Back in 1973 on our Six week holiday break - I was a poorly kid (asthma) and I was too poorly to go on the last day of School for break up for Summer holidays - Then a couple of days later when I was allowed out of bed I realised I'd left 6 or 7 of my best superfast motor car models in my desk ! - I was going to collect them on the last day - But I didnt get there ! - There was a few Corgi Rockets / Juniors - Mom got in touch with the caretaker but Never got any of them back !
I‘m a collector of the superfast models and have all in this catalog but there are a lot of variants of base colors, stickers window colors. So no one will have all of it. In this catalog there’s a lot of pre production models
Very interesting Paul . .I very much enjoy your channel my friend, and seeing all the different models in this book brings many memories of my younger days . . #63
Growing up in Europe, I had never seen a Ford pickup before, let alone one with a canopy. Then after traveling to Canada in 1978, I couldn't believe how many I saw for real! I was however familiar with the Mercedes ambulance. Pretty much none of the real north American cars were seen in Europe though.
It was around 1973 that I lost interest in Matchbox and all their futuristic models and turned my attention to Airfix kits. Superfast never engaged me and Hotwheels left me cold
It must have been around this time that certain easter eggs had matcbox models in them.....i ended up with four SRN6 hovercrafts.....was a bit miffed lol.....and the local barbers had a carousel filled with matchbox.
Zawsze ciekawiły te hot rody od Matchbox, bo nie wydaje mi się, żeby były wzorowane na jakichś prawdziwych egzemplarzach. Łamią też regułę zachowania proporcji czasami
Como o senhor conseguiu essa relíquia de catálogo,faça a organização da coleção pelo catálogo ou como sugeri num vídeo anterior pelo ano,não pela numeração pois muda muito conforme o ano essa e a sugestão. Dessa senhora de 92 anos,meu neto apaixonou nessa coleção de 73,pois ele nasceu em 1979,mas aprecia todos os anos que tem coleção de carrinhos,pois muitos fábrica conforme a indústria automobilística produzia seus carros.
I wasn’t a big fan of sweets as a kid so my mum bought me a toy car every week instead , of course I was a proper lad and they all ended up crashed, burnt out, flying of bridges etc. My friends brother however was a little odd and kept all his pristine, in a box, never played with. He did sell them years later and used the money for a deposit on a house! Still weird though!
That was my toy box. Not a fan of those daft wheeled Yanky cars, especially the beatle with the Monacaled hun etc but little minis, Ford etc were. Nice . Airfix soldiers, hornby wind up train,
In '73 I was eight. Thanks for letting my mind travel back in time.
Thank you very much

Hi Paul they had a lot diffrent ways of reaching all kids back then . Do you see many of the motor cycles around. Or are they they hard to find?
Hi Marty. At that time advertising was not needed at all. Everything that appeared was sold immediately. Best wishes
