    A little insight into the history of model cars

    The history of model cars began shortly after the first originals appeared. Initially, they came on the market as expensive toys that often had various functions, such as a spring mechanism or a steam engine.

    In the 1950s, model cars made of sheet metal were particularly popular. In the 1960s, however, some of the manufacturers of these vehicles went out of business due to rising costs and falling demand. So it happened that in these years the diecast models became more and more. These models were decorated with more details and therefore looked more realistic.

    As more and more collectors became interested in the nostalgic vehicles in the years that followed, the supply of these models matched the demand, especially from the 1980s onwards. As a result, many manufacturers switched to producing model cars that were primarily intended as decoration and no longer as toys.

    This market eventually became more and more popular and bigger, so that even today many companies offer model cars as decoration. Among other things, the quality has improved over the years. Even the cheap offers are often very well made.
