Cleveland Fokker D-8 - 30 Inch Wingspan Balsa Flying Aircraft (DVIII), IT-34

Wood Model Kit,   Box Condition: VG

Sold   

Big wingspan model from 1948. The 'Industrial Training' models were Cleveland's response to a wartime need for simplified models that did not sacrifice realism. All of the Industrial Training models had a near 3 foot wingspans and were essential simplified SF kits. The line was a big sales success during the war, expanded from the original 6 kits to 11 and was continued after the war. Features 7 sheets of quality printwood, fully formed wooden main wheels and thrust button, factory-cut spars and stringers, 90% factory-carved propeller (that requires final finishing), clear windshield material, covering tissue and full size Cleveland-quality plans. Even includes the original factory packing tissue. The model has not been started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts and instructions. The Cleveland Model and Supply Company played a pivotal role in the development of true scale models. In 1909 Bleriot's English Channel flight caused a surge in aviation and model aircraft around the globe. Several companies were ideally positioned to take advantage of the aviation craze. In the USA, Wading River Manufacturing Co. (1909), White Aeroplane (1911), Ideal Model Aeroplane (1911), Broadfield Model Aeroplanes (1919) were among these pioneers, offering everything from plans and parts to complete kits and ARF models. Lindbergh's 1927 crossing of the Atlantic Ocean caused an even bigger world-wide phenomenon called 'The Aviation Craze' that extended up to the start of World War II. Many companies such as Megow, Guillow's and others started right around the time of Lindbergh's flight. Some of these models flew and flew well, but they all had one thing in common - were generally not accurate scale representations. In 1929, a youngster named Ed Packard had a very advanced dream to produce incredibly accurate, true scale models that flew perfectly. This radical idea established the world's longest operating single-owner model airplane supply business, called Cleveland Model and Supply Company. To this day, Cleveland models are treasured as the most accurate flying scale models produced. The fact that Mr. Packard started and successfully grew this business during The Great Depression is a testament to his ideals and business skill. I highly suggest the excellent book called 'Aviations great Recruiter, Cleveland's Ed Packard' by H.L. (Herm) Schreiner. It is an excellent history of the man, his company and the times of the Golden Age of Model Aviation.

Imai Volkswagen Cabrio Beetle - Motorized / Working Headlights, 1/24, B882-1000

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Sealed VG

Sold   

Still factory sealed. This model is unique because it is designed for motorization and also has provision for working head lights. Very nicely molded. The one piece body is usually molded in white. All other parts are molded in black, dark brown, clear and chrome plated plastic and with rubber tires. There is a full interior, optional convertible top in the 'up' position or a 'down' position boot, steerable front wheels and more. Although I cannot confirm it since the kit is still factory sealed, the motorizing hardware - metal axle, gear, contacts, wire, etc. is usually included. However, Imai did not normally furnish the common FA-130 motor or two small bulbs with this kit; they had to be purchased separately. HO or N gauge railroad bulbs would work perfectly.

This kit has never been started. It has been inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions. Frog is considered the father of injection molded model kits. The Lines Brothers opened Frog in 1932, capitalizing on the fever caused by Lindberg's solo transatlantic flight. Almost overnight the western populations became 'Air-Minded', and anything aviation was in high demand. Frog created a quality line of stick and tissue rubber powered aircraft and gliders as well as innovative ready-to-fly rubber powered aircraft that required no assembly. The box even contained a built-in rubber motor winder and fuselage holder. Model airplane flight competitions were popular in Great Britain, and one category was 'Rise Off the Ground', or ROG. By changing this to 'Flies Right Off the Ground', the FROG name was born. In 1936 Frog created a line of injection molded plastic models, the first such kit line in the world (Hawk sold a line of injection molded aircraft models in 1934 but they were factory assembled and painted). Named 'Penguin' after the bird that does not fly, the kits were innovative beyond the means of production. At a time when models were simply built by wingspan, the Penguin line was a constant 1/72 scale. Furthermore, a large 1/72 Short S.30 Empire class flying boat contained a full interior and lights! A line of accessories such as AA guns, tractors, hanger, ambulance, sound locator, searchlights and lighting kits were quickly added to the line. WWII caused a pause in production. After the war the box color changed from silver to green, and Penguin kits were also marketed in the USA. Production ended in 1950. Frog quickly expanded and released the Red, Blue, Orange, Black, Green, Gold Token, Spin and Comet series as well as Trail Blazers and several others. It is noteworthy that while most manufacturers in the 1940s/50 were making toy-like models, Frog attempted to make very realistic models. For example, 'detailing' kits with excessively large rivets was once very popular. Frog ignored this trend and continued to mold aircraft with fine panel lines and no rivets. As a result, Frog kits can be built into very realistic replicas. Production ended in the late 1970s, but Frog molds are still in use around the world.

Monogram Bomber Group B-66A B-58 B-57B - Forty Niner, 1/240, P408-49

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: VG++

Sold   

Very rare. When Monogram invested in the tooling for the fantastic 18 aircraft "Air Power" kit, the sales were disappointing. In order to increase revenue from the molds, Monogram issued the "Refueling Group", "Bomber Group" and "Fighter Group" in the "Forty Niner" series with the Tu-16 Badger, F-101 and P-40. These kits used airplanes from the Air Power set with new blue-molded stands and unique decal and instructions sets. All aircraft are well molded with recessed control surface outline detail. This model has never been started. It is inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions present. The decals are in amazing 'near mint++' condition; the instructions are 'near mint.' The box has like-new color and gloss, four solid corners, no repairs, no price tags or tape; no marks from tags or tape, no fading, tears, stains or missing litho. There is light wear as shown; all four side panels are in slightly better condition as the box top shown.
