Condor Heinkel He-178 V1 - The First Jet Aircraft, 1/72, C72003

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good

Sold   

The He-178 was the world's first aircraft to fly under jet power. The first practical jet engine, invented by Dr. Hans J. Pabst von Ohain, was running in September of 1937. The engine, the HE S1, was fueled with hydrogen and no had throttle control but produced 250 kg of thrust. Von Ohain began work on the He S2B which ran on gasoline and had throttle control. At the same time, Heinkel engineers began design of the worlds first jet airplane, the He-178. The airplane was single-engined with a flush riveted metal monocoque fuselage, wooden wings and retractable gear. Trials with the S3b engine in the airframe began on August 24th, 1939 and on August 27th, the airplane made the first jet flight. It made 12 flights in all before being retired to the Berlin Air Museum where it was destroyed in a bombing raid in 1943. Nicely molded kit with fine recessed panel lines, photoetched details, film instruments and injection molded canopy. Never started. Factory sealed bag with instructions.

West-Craft Super Scout Car US Army, 1/24, S-3

Wood Model Kit,   Box Condition: VG+

Sold   

From the mid 1940s. Very rare with fantastic box art by Bill Neebe. West-Craft box art was amazing at a time when most box art was minimal and/or uninspiring. It was well ahead of its time and certainly predated all plastic kit box art in the USA. This was an excellent and highly detailed model for that time and measures 11 inches long when assembled. Features numerous factory cut hardwood parts, numerous die-cut hardwood parts, die-cut heavy cardstock parts, completely formed and finished wheels with center lugs and tread, full decals, a glass bottle of paint (intact but dried), decals and some of the best early wood kit instructions I have seen. They include 38 detailed text steps, parts identification drawings and four superb elevation drawings. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. The box mentions cement, but I do not see any.
