29a - Bedford milk float

Post by tandyfan »

In the listing, it says that it is not yet clear if the lighter shade exists in the metal wheeled variants. I would say "yes", as I have both lighter and standard shades in metal wheels and also both colours in both flat head and dome head axles. Unfortunately the picture does not show the difference in shades as good as they are visibe by eye. L>R - flat head MW, dome head MW, dome head GPW.

Thanks for the info, I hope to update the page soon.
Re, photographing Matchbox toys, Flash photography will rarely show a model in its true colours,
I always photograph them outside in natural daylight but not in direct sunlight and without flash or any other artificial lighting.
I edit them with photoscape which is completely free to download and use.
First I use "auto levels" to bring out the colours, Then I crop out most of the background, then I resize to 700 - 800 pixels,
