Aurora created model kits of all varieties, including historic sailing ships, sports cars, moon rockets, military and commercial aircraft, television stars, comic book heroes, wildlife scenes, knights, and much more, all of which are included. But among Aurora's most famous products are plastic models of classic Hollywood movie monsters. They are enduring pop culture standards. Kids and adults around the world recognise Frankenstein, Dracula, the Wolf Man and the Mummy. Over 450 colour photographs enhance this comprehensive history and guide to Aurora models. Every model Aurora made - and some that never went into production - are described in detail, with information on re-issues and current collectors' market values (in US dollars). Collectors maintain a brisk trade in vintage Aurora plastic, and new companies continue to re-issue some of Aurora's timeless kits.
