P-51D Mustang - 24 inch Wingspan for RC - Drops Twin Bombs in Flight
Exc   Wood   old
$55

24 inch wingspan kit for RC, free flight or control line. Includes innovative system for automatically dropping twin wing mounted bombs in flight. Sterling was a famous manufacture dating back to the 1930/40s flying model craze. Although they continued to produce kits for decades after the flying model slump following World War II, they eventually fell victim to the general lack of interest in modeling that occured in the early 1980s. I always considered Sterling kits to be deluxe kits as they featured color decals, high-grade die cut balsa, vacuform plastic detail parts, plastic wheels (if required), finished wire landing gear, rubber motor and plastic prop, full size plans with instruction details and full instructions for conversion to RC or control line. The model has not been started. The parts are either in factory sealed bag(s) or inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions.

Boeing B-29 Superfortress 25.5 inch Wing Span Solid Model
VG   Wood   old
$65

1944 issue. When aircraft modeling became popular in the 1930s, most builders made flying models. However, there were a measurable percentage of hobbyist who insisted on making static (called 'solid' models) scale models with the maximum amount of detail in the best tradition of ship modelers. The kits they used to practice their art were basic. Many times the kit consisted of blocks of wood and plans - the famous (or infamous) "Make Wood Look Like Airplane" kits from the 1930 and 1940s. This did not stop them from producing magnificent works of art, many of which are in museums around the world. The more deluxe kits, such as this Comet example, features precarved wood, cut to a profile shape in all three dimensions. This kit also contains other deluxe touches such as wheels, clear plastic blisters and other details, full color decals and even a full tube of cement. Inside, this kit has never been started and is 100% complete with all wooden parts, clear plastic blisters, black plastic wheels, decals (like new), sandpaper, full plans and glue. The model has not been started. The parts are either in factory sealed bag(s) or inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions.
