Photographs by David Levinthal, text by David Corey. This is, perhaps, the sweetest ode to our hobby that has ever been produced. David Levinthal has taken many of the greatest Marx Playsets and photographed them in the most glowing, nostalgic manner possible. He presents, in table-top, eye-level close-ups, the same point of view in which we would have looked at these soldiers when we were growing up. This is not catalog art, like the Sears Catalog. This is a visual appreciation of what we have been doing all our lives, but presented in such a wide-eyed manner than even our doubting wives, sweethearts and friends will have to stop, smile and say, "Is that what you've been seeing in those little men all these years?" They may not shout "Eureka" and become instant converts, but, like you, they will turn every page and rediscover the pure joy of collecting. The pages of "Small Wonder" don't have that just-opened-playset-plastic-smell, but if you don't find yourself as emotionally moved as I was when I read this masterpiece of nostalgia, I'll be mighty surprised. Soft cover, 160 pages, with hundreds of color photographs of such classics as The Untouchables, The Alamo, The Blue and the Gray, Jungle Set, The Super Circus, Battleground, Cape Canaveral, Ben Hur, Robin Hood, Gunsmoke, Wagon Train, RinTinTin Jetport, The Sons of Liberty and much more.
