Mattel Big Jim Repro Art Book

May 7, '15, 11:00 PM

Reproduction is was a series of black and white line drawings of toy products provided to vendors for newspaper advertisements. It is something of a lost artform in this digital age and something I both admire and collect.

I've compiled a gallery of repro art for Mattel's 1975 Big Jim line, as I'm pretty fond of the guy. It's a great look at the whole assortment for that year, including the birth of the P.A.C.K!

Click Here to visit the 1975 Big Jim Repro Art Gallery.

More Big Jim than you can handle!

Yeah, that's a lost art. I love how they actually draw the toys, not concept drawings of the toys.
