The Matchbox Anthology takes an insightful, delightful, informative and pleasurable jaunt through the 1960's of a developing country town and its inhabitants through the curious eyes of Dougie Finlay (AKA Paul Lanham) - a rather adventurous young boy revealing the impact made upon him and his community of a world rapidly changing and evolving around him. ​ This 176 page paperback is a fun read. Even though fictional, the characters shadow childhood depictions of real people.
