Leslie Smith and Rodney Smith formed a partnership in England and on June 19, 1947 began a new company known as \\u201cLesney Products.\\u201d

\\n

Lesney\\u2019s toys were packaged in a small cardboard box with a printed picture and name of the toy on the box top.  Lesney\\u2019s small toy boxes so closely resembled a \\u201cmatch box\\u201d that they soon became known as \\u201cMatch Box Toys\\u201d In 1953, \\u201cMatchbox\\u201d became the registered trademark for Lesney Products line of toys.

\\n

Matchbox, under Mattel\'s ownership, continues today producing quality replicas of cars that would fit inside a \\u201cMatchbox\\u201d and other replicas!

\\n

Matchbox has created many great models that have gone on to be valuable collectibles and to help you make sure you\\u2019re adding pieces with future value to your collection, I\\u2019ve created a FREE Report on \\u201cTips for Valuing Your Collection\\u201d So go on and grab your FREE copy at the link above.
