I had fun with this Brooklin 20th Anniversary Catalogue, 1994 (pics)

It's not rare, not really a collector's item, but I enjoyed leafing through the pages.

With the diving platform on back, it's easy to have fun with this Olds, but somehow, over the years, it's become one of my favorite BRKs.photo no longer available
Here's a forecast of things to come, but it never became available to me. I wonder why not. Maybe I was already getting forgetful back then.

Remember these?

And on the back, the dealer who introduced me to Brooklins. Long gone now. But several of Fremont's sales are still on my shelves, including that Oldsmobile Fiesta.

Excellent. Silly me, but I threw away my catalogs back in the day.
Thanks David...fun to look at.

I noticed an error on page 6. The Corvette was actually introduced in 1953. I was only 20 when this catalog came out and had no idea what a Brooklin model was. Their models have improved significantly over the years and I have collected over 200 to date.

I have this catalogue too somewhere in a box.
I found it in an exposure of model cars around 1999 and since this time I am falled in love with the Brooklin models and the white metal models in general. There was only one collectors of Brooklin models or models in white metal at the exposure. I stayed at his kiosk pratically all the time to speak about these models because the rest of the show was not very interesting for me and was not what i am looking for. I have all the Brooklin catalogues since 2001. I can't believe that i am member on this forum since February 2002. Time go fast.
