	1/67 #137-175 Aurora Avro CF-100 Canuck All-Weather Fighter Sealed Mint Injection Molded old			$115
	1964 issue with 'Famous Fighters' in the boarder of the oval sunburst. Fantastic factory sealed investment-condition box.

	#SG-5 Jetco Thermic Trio - Flying Wing / Orthodox / Tail First - Three Hand-Launched Balsa Wood Gliders Poor Wood old			$42
	From the 1950s. This kit contains three small balsa gliders. All parts are die cut. Full size plans are included. These are magnificent fliers. The kits have never been started and are complete with all parts unpunched and plans.

	Jetco Thermic 18 Hand Launched Wooden Glider - 13 inch Wingspan Poor Wood old			$32
	From the late 1940s/early 1950s. This is a solid balsa wood glider with a 13 inch wingspan. When properly built and trimmed, they are incredible performers. In a small thermal they can quickly climb to 60-70 feet or more and be out of sight quickly. The kit has not been started. It is complete with all parts and plans. The plans are complete and can be used but are brittle. The box is very poor.

	#3756-40 ITC Santa Maria and Mayflower - Precision Miniatures Historical Ship Models Poor Injection Molded old			$18
	Very nicely molded, small scale kits. Contains both ships. The Mayflower and the Santa Maria are about 3 inches long when assembled and features full hulls, display stands billowing sails and rigging diagrams. The kits has never been started. Inventoried 100% complete including decals and instructions.

	1/240 #P407-49 Monogram US Air Force Fighter Group - F-101A Voodoo / F-102 Delta Dagger / F-105B Thundercheif / F-104 Starfighter / F-100D Super Sabre Poor Injection Molded old			$55
	Very rare 'Forty-Niner Compact Model' hardbox from 1960. First and only issue. These are kits from the Monogram Air Power kit. In order to boost sales from the molds, Monogram issues the 'Refueling Group', 'Bomber Group and 'Fighter Group' in the 49er Series. Never started. Inventoried complete with all parts, decals and instructions. NOTE: The box is 100% complete but graded 'poor' due to Box top water damage as shown- box bottom is excellent. Instructions are 'good' and have a small amount of light staining. All parts are in mint condition - never painted or glued and the special stand with 5 stand arms is included. NOTE: Decals sheet is present but is ruined due to water damage - many decals are missing from it.

	1/16 #572-198 Aurora 1913 Mercer Raceabout - 'Old Timers' Issue Exc Injection Molded old			$125
	1961 issue with an 'excellent' grade box. Done in a big 1/16 scale, this kit and the other 'Old Timers' in the series represented a significant leap forward in quality for Aurora. The kit features full suspension, transaxle and driveline detail. It builds up a rolling chassis like the real car, and includes full exhaust and a detailed interior. Molded in gloss ivory, gloss black and with brass plated parts and real rubber tires. The kit has never been started. Inventoried 100% complete including instructions. Aurora was renowned for turning a profit and for keeping expenses down. In researching new kit subjects, they came upon a forgotten jewel - the Hudson Miniatures line of 1/16 scale wooden kits. Hudson had discontinued this line due to lack of sales of wooden kits. But the Hudson models were second to none in quality, research and documentation. Aurora was quick to realize this and used the research and layout from these kits to create the subjects for this 'Old Timers' series. It is fortunate for us that they did, because in most cases this is the only injection molded kit of these rare and classic early automobiles.

	1/64 #682-89 Aurora 5000 Gallon Gasoline Trailer/Tanker and White 3000 Truck Fair Injection Molded old			$99
	Rare first issue from around 1953/54. Nicely made kit. The truck and trailer are both molded in bright red and they have real rubber tires. Includes decals for cab and tanker. The tanker section has opening valve box doors and valve piping. The White 3000 truck features frame construction with separately molded suspension, dual and single wheels, gas tanks, 5th wheel coupler, interior and two piece cab. The kit has never been started. All parts are still sealed in the factory bags. Includes decals and instructions in excellent condition. The box is only fair. It is intact but has suffered from a heavy hit on the right side - this damaged the end panel and two side panels.

	1/48 #99-98 Aurora P-38 Lightning West Hempstead Issue - Famous Fighters of All Nations Poor Injection Molded old			$145
	Second issue kit from the West Hempstead plant in the early 1950s. Molded in the correct light blue with little surface detail and no mass balances, pitot tube or landing gear struts, wheels and doors. Includes the correct rectangular clear stand for this issue. Decals and instructions are in excellent condition. The box is all there but poor. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions. The Aurora issues of the 1/48 scale P-38 are interesting to say the least. The first issue is the Brooklyn kit with the P-38/B-24 box artwork. Inside, the plastic is light blue with minimal surface detail and a clear canopy and rectangular stand that says 'Aurora Plastic Corp. Brooklyn, 4, N.Y.'. There are no landing gear, gear doors or mass balances. The second issue has identical box art, plastic color, decals and rectangular stand, but the box and instructions says 'West Hempstead' instead of Brooklyn. The clear stand mold has had 'Brooklyn' milled out, and there is no location on the stand. The third issue has the same artwork, but the full color 'Aurora Line' logo is used - but the big changes were on the inside. Aurora modified the molds, adding a pitot tube, elevator mass balances and landing gear struts, wheels and doors. The decals and stand remain the same, but the new instructions reflect the changes to the molds. This time the kit is molded in an attractive metallic blue. The fourth issue dropped the Jim Cox artwork in favor of a new P-38 flying from right to left across a threatening sky. The plastic still metallic light blue and the decals and stand remain unchanged. The new details were retained. The fifth issue was 1959. The oval 'Famous Fighters' logo was used with Jo Kotula artwork of two P-38s. The detail level of the kit remained the same, but it was molded in olive drab and clear. The newer 'Triangle' base was added at this time. Further issues kept this box artwork, but the oval logo changed as well as the price extensions.

	1/72 #256-100 Renwal 1909 Avro Triplane and 1909 Curtiss Golden Flyer Poor Injection Molded old			$42
	Kit includes both models. The Avro was one of the first British aircraft and the Curtiss Golden Flyer was the Speed trophy winner at Reims in France. These are unique and accurate kits. The original internal frame structure and details of the aircraft is built from injection molded plastic. When complete, it is covered with a very strong fabric which is included. The result is a very realistic aircraft. Never started. NOTE: the Avro Triplane is still in the factory sealed bag, but the Curtiss Golden Flyer is missing (2) #30 wing skids (easily made from stock material) and #19, the prop. Inventoried with all other parts, instructions and Aeroskin.

	1/72 #212-100 Renwal 2 for 1 Aeroskin Fabulous Flying Machines Antoinette 1908 Monoplane and Voisin Farman 1908 Biplane Poor Injection Molded old			$48
	Kit includes both models. Very nicely detailed. The Antoinette was the first plane in the world to attain an altitude of 500 feet, and the Voisin made the first city-to-city powered flight. These are unique and accurate kits. The original internal frame structure and details of the aircraft is built from injection molded plastic. When complete, it is covered with a very strong fabric which is included. The result is a very realistic aircraft. Never started. NOTE: the Antoinette is still in the factory sealed bag but the Voisin Farman is missing one rear small wheel strut. Otherwise inventoried with all other parts, instructions and Aeroskin covering.

	1/48 #502-79 Aurora Piasecki H-25A Army Mule VG- Injection Molded old			$275

Earlier in the 1950s a company called 'Helicopters for Industry' created a line of large, early kits. In 1956 Aurora bought the molds and quickly reissued these models with new box artwork. Large kit features cockpit with instrument panel, control sticks and seats, spinning rotors and 'Army Mule' decals. Molded in the correct gloss olive drab and clear plastic. The kit has never been started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions.
