Auto World catalogs died off by the '90s. Forgot when the last catalog was published. There was also a 1/1 racing parts & accessories catalog. *LINK*
In Response To: Nope,only ever heard of an Auto World catalog once the internet arrived,for me,it was waiting for a Saturday morning when I could catch the train into Sydney & go spend some hours oggling the kits & built models at HobbyCo,the biggest by far hobby & model shop around. *NM* ()

The model car catalog eventually spread to include slot cars and radio controlled cars (Jerobee).
Internet story says 1991 was the last year for the mail-order businesses. Another website with an album of catalog covers claims that 1992 was the last catalog...but they don't have an image of it...
