THE LANSDOWNE
COLLECTOR
The Magazine of the
Lansdowne Collectors' Club
"The Lansdowne Collector" is
the magazine of the Lansdowne Collectors Club, and as such is only available
to Lansdowne Collectors' Club Members.
It is issued four times a year, in
January, April, July, and October. The magazine is a mine of information on all
things which are Lansdowne (or Robeddie Models) related, and is a indispensable
part of anyone's library who is interested in the small scale versions of the
full size classics.
The latest issue (March-May
2008) of
"The Lansdowne Collector" has just been published.
Issue No. 35, which
incidentally, includes reviews, by our regular contributor, Dave Turner, on the
Lansdowne Models Jensen3.5 litre S-Type Saloon, and from the Brooklin
range, the '37 Lincoln Model K ,the '57 Rambler Super Cross Country Station
Wagon, and the 1952 Cunningham C-3 Coupé (New colour). Our staff reviewer Carl Richardson offers his opinions on the
1964 Sunbeam Alpine Race Car, including a quite detailed history of the car, and
its driver's racing achievements in the States whilst, our editor, Bob Timmis, casts
his critical eye over the same model. Mike Coupe contributes his usual Lansdowne Popularity Sales Chart
for the final quarter of 2007, plus the overall chart for the year, plus an
overview of the Wolseley car in model form.
As usual, the magazine is full of coloured photographs illustrating the
articles.
Finally, members are reminded
that they should be ordering the Collectors Club Model for 2008 now, if they
want one, and just to remind you, its the Lagonda 2.6 Convertible with the hood
in closed position, colour yellow, with pale beige interior, and a darker beige
hood. Just contact Bob Timmis on the email below, or telephone him. As usual,
the models mark of authenticity will be the numbered certificate; without it,
the model may not be genuine.

Collectors' Club. You will not only receive this superb quarterly magazine, but
