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.

Great organizer for "normal length" chains
Color: B-Metal Black
This little tree has saved all my random jewelry from its fate of being a tangled mess in a zipper bag, or in my nightstand drawer, or the bottom of my purse...you get it. If you have a lot of long (greater than 26 inches or so) chains, you may wish to opt for something taller. But for my purposes, it's just grand. Even nicer-looking than the picture also.

Excellent Buy, Quality Build, Great Price
Color: B-Metal Antique Greenish
Solid metal. Tree attaches to the base with a Phillips screw (four way). Sturdy attachment. Metal was intact upon delivery and me foolishly dropping it on the ground as I opened it out of the box. The tree is... how must I put it? Two dimensional I suppose, which you can see from the pictures the branches extend in only opposite directions. So it is not three dimensional in the aspect that the branches go every which way like an actual tree. This is what I had envisioned and I don't want you to make the same mistake. This product is what it says, my imagination ran away from me with the picture and I bought it very quickly. All in all a wonderful piece for the money.

Cute but sharp edges!
Color: B-Metal Antique Greenish, Color: B-Metal Antique Greenish
Its cute but has tiny sharp edges i cut myself when putting it together. I will buff it down and keep it. But the quality control is definitely lacking.

Great for price
Color: B-Metal Antique Greenish
I don’t have a ton of jewelry but enough to need somewhere to put it. Easy to put together. I don’t know that it’s nice enough to buy as a gift alone but I’m happy with it for myself.

Effective & Attractive with Wireless Charging
Color: Blue, Color: Blue
This "valet" organizer, which is the first time I've heard that term for a product like this, is nearly perfect. For me, it checks all of the boxes and in a perfect world, I would have opted for a smaller piece with only three compartments for mobile, wallet, and keys. It's well made and quite attractive, especially the blue (favorite color, so I'm biased). The only feature I'm not a fan of is how the removeable, wireless charging pad was implemented, which sits up on a small lip at a slight incline. However, I'm not complaining one bit as the wireless charging is great, and it's a differentiator that determines the value of the piece. I would have preferred the pad be built into the piece, however the angle of it does make it easy to grab opposed to using your finger(s) to pry it up.
