Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed VG++
$17
Still factory sealed. This kit is either from the original Monogram molds or is a direct part-for-part copy of Monogram's 1/48 kit.

In case you are interested, there is a great short history of the aircraft which reads exactly as follows: 'Among them G=Type, which was rebuilt with equippment of BK 37 machien gun For Obserber and two guns 37mm below two wings to attack tanks, played an active part mainly in Eastern front. The model, with its wing span of 15 m, body length 11.13 m, height 3.84 m, the highest speed 375 km/h, can be assembled keeping it's pilot cabin opened or closed.'

Revell Convair B-58 Hustler - 'S' Issue, 1/94, H252-129
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG+
$139
Dated 1957 and has the dramatic box art that has made these kits so valuable today. Please note this is a very rare '129' cent kit number variation (produced in the USA for domestic sale), which probably puts the actual date of production @ 1959. It was an excellent model for that time featuring very fine recessed and raised panel lines, full crew, three opening cockpit hatches, rotating wheels, 'The Pod' for weapons and fuel and well detailed gear struts and braces. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions.

$145
First issue dated 1956 with great "S" artwork. The box is in amazing investment-grade "Near Mint" condition with perfect color and gloss. The only thing keeping it from being mint is occasional, isolated very light wear.

It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. Instructions and decals are in 'near mint' condition also with very light yellowing as the only flaw.

$155
1955 hardbox design. Please note the early Aurora rectangular logo, which was used from about 1953 to 1955.

Rare, large scale model features working counter-rotating props and is molded in gloss silver and clear. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions.
Comet Boeing B-47 Stratojet, 1/205, PL-22

Comet originally began model production in 1929 with a line of balsa flying models. In the mid-1950s Comet made a beautiful line of small and medium scale aircraft and missile models with colorful boxes. The early issues were in one-piece 'flip-top' boxes, and the later issues and releases were in standard two-piece 'hardboxes' with a lithograph slick glued to the top box. In 1963 Comet sold the plastic kit molds to Aurora, who reissued some but not all of the kits.
