Richard Vyškovský (born 13 July 1929, Vienna, Austria) is a Czech architect and author of paper models. In 1960s Vyškovský worked for ''State institute for reconstruction of historic towns and monuments'' (SÚRPMO) in Prague. After a discussion with colleagues, complaining about limited availability of die-cast Matchbox scale cars sold in the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic only in Tuzex shops, he decided to create as similar model from paper. His first model was designed after a die-cast Packard Landaulet model manufactured by Lesney Products under code Y-11 in the series ''Models of Yesteryear''.〔 In October 1968 newspaper ''Lidová demokracie'' published a short article about "ing. Blecha and his colleague" accompanied by photos of paper models Mercedes 38/220 and Packard Landaulet. State-owned publishing house SNDK and Vladislav Toman, editor in chief of magazine ABC, have shown interest in publishing paper models by Blecha/Vyškovský.〔 Already in 1968 SNDK published their paper diorama "''Hussite siege of Karlštejn''".〔Česká televize, ''Seekers of Time: Paper Castle'', quot. "The first thing that I made was the Hussite siege of Karlštejn. It was just a primitive drawing of Karlštejn Castle with a few Hussite soldiers around it. This was the commission. It was my cup of tea, because I come from a very patriotic family. I’m a Viennese Czech, and in my early youth I read all the works of Jirásek and all the patriotic works on this topic. The Hussites were very close to my heart." (pdf )〕 Magazine ABC published in March 1969 a simplified paper model of Packard Landaulet.〔ABC mladých techniků a přírodovědců, volume 13, issue 12〕 In the following seven years Blecha and Vyškovský published in ABC and SNDK/Albatros a series of further paper models, including a vast model of Prague Castle. Since 1976 Vyškovský designed the models for ABC and Albatros on his own. The first published self model was Formula 1 Ferrari 312-T2 of Niki Lauda for ABC.〔Stanislav Fajkus, ''Papírová archeologie aneb historie vystřihovánek v ABC (6.)'', ABC, 26th August 2004〕 Since 1997 are his models also published by company ERKO''typ'', which is co-owned by his son Richard.〔Commercial registr at justice.cz, company number (IČ) 25101226, ERKOTYP, s.r.o., since the incorporation on 21st January 1997 is Richard Vyškovský (born 1968) co-owner and managing director of the company〕 == Books with paper models == * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Richard Vyškovský」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
