I have long intended to start a thread that features photo of models and books together. In fact it has been so long that I thought I already had, but apparently not. Here is a representative sampling of doing these photos over the years.
Ford Model T Van (1915) by Corgi by Michael, on Flickr
This 1:43 1915 Ford Van by Corgi sits on my bookshelf... at arm's length from my actual model collection as I don't think it quite measures up as a scale model but it is a great commemorative knickknack as it was created for Ford of Britain's 75th anniversary in 1986.
