https://universautojaune.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Taylor-and-Barret-Trolleybus-deux-etages-22Use-Dominion-Petrol22-819.jpg980653I thought of this when I saw the splendid Taylor and Barret trolleybus for sale, as it was the only item I ever bought from "Mint and Boxed." Everything was pure luxury; the catalogs were sumptuous, and the prices astronomical. When I saw this marvelous toy, with its rare box, advertised in the beautiful color catalog, I decided to break the bank. A collector always manages to find arguments to convince themselves of the merits of buying an expensive model. I remember taking advantage of the Windsor swap meet to go and pick it up from the splendid London shop. That was the only time I went there, by the way; he very quickly abandoned diecast. He must have convinced investors that the returns were far superior with tin toys. I particularly like reproductions of public transport vehicles. This Taylor and Barret trolleybus is majestic. When it was released in the mid-1930s, manufacturers used sheet metal to reproduce this type of product at this scale. I'm thinking of the Tri-Ang Minic brand. This was the first time in the history of model making that a metal trolleybus (in this case, lead) was reproduced at this scale, approximately 1/50.
