May be this photo also deserves a place in this thread. I was rather pleased with the result, both with the picture itself and the development it illustrates: A VISUAL HISTORY OF MECCANO JOB NO. 10151

Further to my Post on the previous page, yep, I sure did post this image previously - I have just found it in the Dinky of the Day Thread and the post was made on 26 September 2014. My apologies for inflicting the image again on unsuspecting readers of this Forum. Hopefully this will be the last time I duplicate photographs- until my memory again fails me!

Jan What a great display bringing all these with the tinplate ladders together.I notice the DTCA Archives does not hold a copy of Drawing 10151, and I presume the drawing would have contained the amendment regarding the extension to the length of the ladder from 1952. It is obvious based on the comments above that your post is very well received. Kind regards Bruce (150) #630 12 June 15

A good friend and fellow Dinky collector recently loaned me a few scale storefronts, so I decided to try and pose some of my Dinky's to see what scenes could be created. This is one of them...........the Guy Van 'Lyons Swiss Rolls' making a delivery to a restaurant........... Regards, Terry

Nicely done, Terry. But I think you will need some assistance of the vehicle below in order to deliver all the wonderful beers they have on offer! Kind regards, Jan

Advantage of the new website is the considerably bigger format allowed for illustrations. So I think this is the best thread to profit from this opportunity. A random photo detail of my table display, a delightful circa 1948 scene, 1200 x 750 pixels. Kind regards, Jan

Jan--You are exactly right....the new site allows for much larger images to be displayed, as your wonderful photo shows. This is a great format for scenes such as yours. And what a wonderful nostalgic scene you portrayed....very nicely done.Terry

Am going to try another photo from some time ago....I tried increasing the quality level to maximum, instead of high, so not sure if it will make the image too large? I also do not know if you need to save the original image at that level, instead of an edited version, which this is............so here it is, the various Farmer's Market trucks from years ago, in a very colorful mix.......... Terry
