	The Bad Fads Museum - Matchbox Cars

		The first Matchbox cars were made in 1953 and each year new cars were added, with some being replaced, until there were 75 cars (there were never more than models in each year's line).
		Matchbox Cars remained a leader in the field of die-cast cars until it began losing market share in the late sixties.
