Review

Lionel's toy train catalogs of the 1920s and 1930s described them as "outfits", but today collectors commonly call them "sets". Regardless of which term you choose, you'll find a wealth of new and vital information in Greenberg's Guide To Lionel Trains, 1901-1942: Volume 4 - Prewar Sets. This is the first book devoted exclusively to Lionel's colorful and rugged pre-World War II train sets. Lavish color photographs show what came in each set and how the sets were packaged. Dave McEntarfer's informative text reveals production details not seen in photgraphs, and describes the components of each Standard Gauge, O Gauge, and O27 Gauge set. Current value listings for these hard-to-find complete sets are also given. Special appendices in the book have been designed to help collectors match specific pieces with the proper sets. -- Midwest Book Review
