Roy Cross


Roy Cross's dramatic illustrations for Airfix have ignited the imagination of young boys for decades.
More than often the box visuals where more exciting than the plastic model kit inside.

Guaranteed Mothproof


Its hard to find nice woollen blankets that have survived moth attacks, escaped the dump
