Seems like such a short time I've been enjoying this pastime...1951 was when I started, and then there were the periodicals. Names were prominent on those pages...Air Trails, M.A.N., later Model Builder and Flying Models.
Eventually, I'd have the pleasure of meeting some of these guys.
But some others were not to be. Your roll call dampened my eyes, as happens when I scroll down the column.
Thanks, Robert. The mention of them brings them back for a moment.
