23 Hobby Model Vought Sikorsky Corsair F4U-1 - 28 Inch Wingspan Flying Model
Wood Model Kit, Box Condition: VG
Rare 1940s stick-and-tissue rubber powered flying model kit with a 28 wingspan and retractable landing gear. Could be easily converted to electric power and RC with today's light components. Inside, the kit is exactly as it left the factory. All of the parts are specially wrapped (I am calling it 'internally sealed) in the plans and you can be the very first to open it! The box is in 'very good' condition which is exceptional for these thing, lightweight boxes. The box art by Alan Berni unfortunately shows Corsairs attacking what appears to be CV-3, USS Saratoga. Hobby Model was located in New York, NY and had a large and extensive line of wooden flying models and also solid wood display scale models.
