Aurora Cessna 310, 1/62, 283-50
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc++
Sold
Rare issue dated 1963 and from ex-Comet molds. Neatly molded with all recessed panel lines, clear side and front windows, tip tanks, rotating propellers, display stand and full pinstripe decals. The kit has never been started. Inventoried 100% complete including decals and instructions. Aurora had started a line of inexpensive 29 cent kits in about 1957. The line was a success, and it was expanded. The line grew again when Aurora purchased the Comet molds, as most of Comet's line was very small scale kits, many of them civil aircraft like this one. It appears that Aurora was encouraged by the sale of the ex-Comet civil aircraft, as it expanded the line with it's own molds in the early 1960s.

Guillows Spad VII - 18 Inch Wingspan Rubber or .01 Gas Powered Free Flight Aircraft, WW-3
Wood Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
Sold
From about 1965. One of a very popular line of World War 1 flying aircraft stick and tissue kits with 18 inch wingspan.

The model has not been started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions. Guillow's founder, Paul K. Guillow, was a WWI naval aviator. In 1926 he began producing wooden model airplane kits. His 'Shelf Models' were some of the earlier non-flying models in production. Guillow's grew during the model boom of the 1930s, and when the Depression hit the hardest, Guillow's responded with lower prices and became one of the low price leaders, frequently advertising in Model Airplane News and other leading publications. During the war, like most manufacturers, Guillow's was forced to alternative materials such as cardboard and pine. Guillow's survived the post WWII slump by creating many inexpensive profile flying rubber powered aircraft and gliders in the 1950s (along with North Pacific) which became famous - some are still available today. The stick and tissue lines have been updated with laser cut parts and are still in production as of 2009.

From the 1970s and one of the better "E" model Flying Fortresses in this scale.

Decals are included for two historical aircraft - Suzy-Q, a very early Pacific Theater aircraft from 1942 flown by Captain Felix Hardison USAAC (this B-17 had no ball turret) and Yankee Doodle, the ship that General Ira C. Eaker flew in as an observer during the 8th Air Forces first bombing mission against the railway marshaling yards at Sottenville, near Rouen France on August 17, 1942. Never started.
