Rezension von Rudi Seidel / Redaktion auto & modell

Inhalt

Obwohl es in Österreichs Geschichte eigene Fahrzeugmarken und Konstruktionen wie Steyr oder geniale Fahrzeugentwickler wie Ferdinand Porsche gegeben hat, waren historische Autominiaturen aus Österreich weitgehend unbekannt.

Als der Autor ein altes Spielzeugauto mit „Made in Austria“ und „Igri“ Beschriftung auf der Bodenplatte in seine Hände bekam, begann er sich zu fragen: „Wer ist Igri, und was gibt es noch?“ Unbekannte Spielzeugautoformen weckten den Forschergeist weitere frühe Austro Minis aufzustöbern. Nachdem die Kollektion nach vier Jahrzehnten zu einer weltweit einzigartigen Sammlung angewachsen war, entstand die Idee, die Geschichte der Fundstücke genauer zu dokumentieren.

Mit dem Buch „Historische Spielzeugautos aus Österreich / Toy Cars Made in Austria“ schauen wir durch ein Vergrößerungsglas auf kleine Autos in eine lang vergessene Industrie- und Alltagskultur. Neben Steyr- und Volkswagen- Modellen, Traktoren und US-Straßenkreuzern, den Wiener Linien und vielen Werbemitteln gab es unter anderem den berühmten Igel Mecki auf einem Puch Moped.

Hersteller wie Proxima, Semperit, Kleinbahn, Gowi, Roco, Igri, CN, Artus oder Miro laden zum Entdecken und Forschen ein und lassen Österreichs Verkehrswesen von einst en miniature Revue passieren.

Content

While Austria has had its own vehicle makes and models such as Steyr and is the birthplace of ingenious vehicle developers like Ferdinand Porsche, historical car miniatures from Austria have largely remained unexplored.

Still a child, when author Marco Annau stumbled across an old toy car marked on the base with “Made in Austria” and “Igri”, he asked himself, “Who is Igri, and what else might be out there?” The shapes of unknown toy cars awakened his exploratory spirit, and he began the search for more early Austrian car miniatures. Four decades later, his collection has grown into a collection that is unique in the world, documented here in this book.

Toy Cars Made in Austria takes a detailed look at these small cars from a long-forgotten industrial and everyday driving culture. In addition to Steyr and Volkswagen models, tractors and US road cruisers, the Wiener Linien, a plethora of promo cars, and much more, we are introduced to the famous hedgehog Mecki … on a Puch moped! Manufacturers including Proxima, Semperit, Kleinbahn, Gowi, Roco, Igri, CN, Artus, and Miro invite readers to explore and discover, letting Austria’s roads of yesteryear pass by in miniature.

Perfect. Sturdy. Super easy to assemble.
Size: 6 tier, Color: Black Brush Silver
I don’t rate a lot of items but I’m in love with this one. I just received it today. It was packaged incredibly well, took 15 min or less to put together and looks amazing!!! I’m tempted to order another one for another room in the house. It’s sturdy, well-made and I can’t stress how easy it was to assemble. Great product, highly recommend. (The owners even sent a hand-written note thanking me for ordering - what a nice touch!) Edit: ordered a second one after living first one so much

Perfect industrial look bookshelf
Size: 6 tier, Color: Black Brush Silver, Size: 6 tier, Color: Black Brush Silver
Surprised how good the quality was for the price. Metal is real metal and wood seems to be real wood. Pretty much twist on and off each section to put together. No question it is a very sturdy piece of furniture. Bought it over other bookshelves because the reviews said it was solid … and indeed it did turn out to be very solid. I’m very pleased and would recommend. Now I just need some things to fill the shelves.

Looks great & saves space
Color: Rustic Brown and Black, Color: Rustic Brown and Black
I couldn't be happier with the look and the space it's saving me. It came very well packaged, even with corner guards on the wood shelfs. It was very easy to assemble and attach to the end of my pantry in the kitchen. That space was just going to waste. The ladder shelf fit perfect and looks great. I love the color and texture of the wood grain, it really goes well with the black metal rail. It will be a little wobbly until you get it screwed down to the wall but after that, it's good and sturdy. The instructions were easy enough to read but I still found a couple of parts I didn't use and wondered what they were for? The parts do come numbered but only on the packaging? Not on the part itself which would have been more helpful to some extent. So just keep it all together with it's packaging and you'll have no problems. Very happy with purchase.

Nice and sleek
Color: Rustic Brown and Black
I’m really happy with the bookshelves overall, I only wish they had taller ones available. It was very quick and easy to put together and they have held up well so far. They look great for the price and I especially like that they have a small footprint when it comes to how much room they take up.

Nice, sturdy and easy to assemble.

Worked great for our small apartment. We needed something to fit over our heater baseboard and this worked! However, we had to swap the bottoms and top side rods to fit this way, meaning instead of using the 6” rods at the bottom we put them on top and used the 12” at bottom to clear over the baseboards. Easy to assemble and matched our other larger wall shelf perfectly.
