How Model Cars are Made (1962) | British Pathé

When the die - cast cars was "Made in England" 👍🏻

great! thx

wow respect these guys who used no CAD 😢. legendary! catia, nx etc.. these are your great great grandfather ya.😊

I expect this must be the Lesney factory on the edge of Hackney marshes. We used to live about half a mile away. My mum worked there but I can't pick her out in the film. She used to bring home some of the discarded seconds for me. I had a bucket full of Matchbox cars.

Cool vintage footage. Love the music.

I would love to get my hand on the moulds.

What kind of pot metal used?

Kenapa matchbox yg model vintage&classic Cars tidak beredar di Indonesia?padahal banyak penggemarnya.....

Very cool 👍

Great footage. Those lovely cars were my favourites in my childhood. I’m a huge fan of the 1-75 line up of the 70s.

Thank you , I was playing matchbox cars when I was little , and my son play match box cars too now , thank you

These people took their job very seriously. Would love to work there.

Hermosos carritos 😍

Почти полностью ручной труд ! Сколько тепла и души вложено в простые игрушки 🧸! От такой игрушки и ребёнок по другому будет воспринимать этот мир ✌️

What’s the name of the music played in this film

What charming film footage. It makes a great hobby to find an old toy car, strip it down and repaint and restore them to as new condition 😀 makes a great display when finished.

Matchbox ❤️Vintage Retro Cars

Oh my, every kids dreamplace. 😊❤️👍

There would be a time machine, for a week to fly in this factory of cars-to type, for memory!

AMALGAN IS POYSEN

My haven, still love them.

My Nan worked in the Lesney's factory (Matchbox) I wonder if she's in this film?

Brilliant... I saw most of mine in there! 😏

Imagine one of those hot workers bringing home one piece at a time and it won't cost you a dime....

Children let me tell you a story, Many , many years ago the uk used to make things and employ people making things , all this is just History now , such a shame .

I loved the way egg heads used to wear white coats.

Even toy cars were better back then!

Legendary British toymaker that gave immense pleasure to many .

Look at all the people working, dont see that anymore, robots now.

I wanted to be the fun boss

Proper, realistic looking toy cars. None of that plastic cartoony rubbish you see on toy shelves now.

Diecast - one of the best toys ever made....

I have in mind; running a hobby store, that's why I mentioned 1/24th scale die cast metal models.

..........and now, let’s fly to Portland, Washington and visit the Sawyers View-Master factory, shall we?

🇵🇹

Nice to bad this is all done in China and other places not so nice today.

just 2 minutes?

Realmente very good working 👍👌👷🏢💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎

This is fantastic 👍

намоленные модельки ( в моём детстве редко у кого такие были , да и сегодня они продолжают радовать )

had loads of these in the 50s, all went somewhere.

I bet those Coronation coach models are worth a fortune now.

That blonde is fine

Could you imagine getting a nice one made of that wonderful shiny metal, and ornately painted wheels with a streamlined foundation and a pop of color in them (like a 1937 Packard rim set) or some other fancy grand choice to separate from the chromed surface of the body. Oh I'd be real swell if they would of done that, but the companies of China decided to destroy MatchBox, aaand real automobiles to the plastic nightmare melting pancakes on ugly wheels you see today.

I love matchbox cars!

Very nice you can tell a lot of passion went into making them!

I never tire of watching Pathe films. Love everything about them.
