DONALD CAMPBELL'S BLUEBIRD PROTOTYPE - DRAWINGS FOR THIS KIT ARE PRODUCED FROM THE ORIGINAL ARCHIVES.

MICROMODELS WAS ORIGINALLY STARTED BY GEOFFREY HEIGHWAY IN THE 1940s AND HELPED REVOLUTIONISE THE MARKET FOR PRINTED CARD CUT-OUT KITS. THE DEMAND FOR MICROMODELS WAS BOOSTED BY THE AUSTERITY YEARS DURING WWII (1939-1945), AS MANY PEOPLE WITH TIME ON THEIR HANDS WERE ABLE TO TAKE UP A HOBBY AT LITTLE COST. MICROMODELS WAS PURCHASED BY BROADWAY APPROVALS IN THE 1960s AND SOLD TO MICROMODEL DISTRIBUTORS IN THE 1970s. THE MICROMODELS ARCHIVES, WHICH INCLUDED THE MAJORITY OF ORIGINAL ART WORK, PRINTING PLATES AND ALL OF THE ONGOING AND UNFINISHED PROTOTYPES FOR MANY NEW KITS, WAS PURCHASED BY D.G.MODELS (AUTOCRAFT) IN 1985. THIS KIT HAS BEEN PRODUCED SPECIFICALLY FOR THE MANY COLLECTORS OF MICROMODELS WHO HAVE EXPRESSED A KEEN INTEREST IN OBTAINING COPIES FROM THE EARLY ARCHIVES AND UNFINISHED PROTOTYPES. DUE TO THE SMALL RUN ANTICIPATED D.G.M. WILL PRODUCE THIS MODEL IN IT'S ENTIRETY.
