TOY BUNNIES ON PLASTIC SCOOTERS: MY GUIDE BOOK TO JR21 NOVELTY TOYS

I published my latest book exactly one year ago!

"Toy Bunnies on Plastic Scooters"

Yay!

Its been 8 years in the making! I started it after publishing my last effort, The Art of SWORD.

It was fun to research and I'm glad its published now.


It's published and available through online self-publishing outlet Blurb


Here's just three of the 40 pages.

Our own Bill B took some of the photo's.


Its more expensive than I would have liked but that's Blurb publishing I'm afraid.

I've reduced the page number by half since I got my proof copy last month, so its now a slimmer coffee table book and as a result a bit less pricey.

If any of you should wish to check my book out further on Blurb then here's the link:


Should anyone want to purchase this book after you see Blurb's prices then don't forget to use Blurb's current offer promo code if there is one in your country when you get into the BLURB website. Just google it.

By all means ask me anything you want about how this thing came about or what it covers.

    I take it this book is self-published ? If so, you are a brave man. All my writing has been for normal magazine and book publishers. Doing it all yourself must have been a big job. Good luck with sales.

    1. Yes, BLURB is an online self-publishing outfit Paul. NO ISBN@s or anything like that but they can do stuff like that if you pay. My efforts used their free service. I'm planning a second volume now.

  2. It is a great book, without sounding self congratulatory - its a good size and covers all you need to know about this classic toy series, amazingly diverse and probably familiar from most peoples childhood in the sixties, these toys were the year round staple outside of the run of Gerry Anderson models and space toys and appealed to both girls as well as boys. A thorough piece of research, several years in the making.
