Lindberg Republic P-47N Thunderbolt, 1/48, 511-98

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: VG

Sold   

Very early issue from the 1950s with colorful Ray Gaedke hardbox artwork. This is the third issue of this kit for the USA, with added fine rivet detail and molded in silver and clear. Never started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts decals and instructions. NOTE: there is a small (1/2" x 1/2") price tag litho pull on the left short side of the box top and a very light stain along the right edge as shown in the photo. This kit started life as a basic 1/48 scale model with minimal surface detail, full landing gear, rockets and bombs. Lindberg modified it in the mid 1950s with very fine rivet detail. In the late 1950s it was modified again to a motorized version with an electric motor in the nose and the batteries in the stand. Lindberg is a company with a fascinating history The original 'Lindberg Line' stretches back to the 1930s when Paul Lindberg drew plans for famous modeling magazines and marketed his balsa wood 'stick and tissue' by urging dealers to carry the '...Complete Lindberg Line'. After the war, Lindberg and Olsen had a strong hand in early United States injection molded kit development. Please see the article located on this website about early USA plastic kit manufacturers.

Nitto TWO M3A1 Half Track With Jeep / Sturmgeschutz III With Jeep / ESCI TWO German Soldiers Smoke Units / ESCI TWO German Opel Blitz With 2cm Flak 38, 1/76, 16

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: VG to Exc

Sold   

SALE!! Includes all 7 kits in the 4 boxes shown. NOTE: Sold AS-IS and not inventoried. This collector was very meticulous. Of the many thousands of his kits that I did inventory,, 95+% are complete. But on these kits he cut the sprue (trees) with the part numbers still attached to each number, so the parts are loose. Because of that, I have not inventoried these kits. NOTE: he built minor sub assemblies (chassis, body sides, turrets, etc.) to 'professional' quality. Again, these kits are sold not inventoried and AS IS hence the very low price. Please note that while the three Nitto kits are listed as 1/76 scale, the 4 ESCI kits are listed as 1/72 scale.

With decals and instructions. The CAMS 37 was the first design for Chantiers Aéro-Maritimes de la Seine (CAMS) by their new head designer, Maurice Hurel. The prototype was displayed at the 1926 Salon de l'Aeronautique in Paris and first flew the same year. After testing it was quickly was ordered into service before the end of the year. The 37 was a conventional biplane flying boat very similar to previous CAMS designs, being driven by a pusher propeller whose engine was mounted on struts in the interplane gap. Series production was from 1928 to 1939. The first and main production version was the amphibious CAMS 37A that was bought by the French Navy, the Portuguese Navy and the aeroclub of Martinique. Most were shipboard spotter and recon aircraft for the French Navy, eight went to Portugal, then there was the 37.11 or 37E training flying boat and finally the 37Lia enclosed cabin liaison amphibian. Total production was about 150 with most going to the French Air Force and Navy. The CAMS 37A had a very active and successful career, serving aboard almost all of the Navy's capital ships. Trials were conducted by Compagnie Générale Transatlantique on the SS Île de France to evaluate operating catapult-launched mailplanes from transatlantic liners with two specially-built 37/10s. René Guilbaud made a famous and newsworthy long-distance flight over Africa and the Mediterranean between 12 October 1927 and 9 March 1927, venturing as far as Madagascar before returning to Marseille. In the course of the flight Guilbaud covered 22,600 km (14,000 mi) in 38 stages without incident. However, aviation was moving quickly during that time and soon the CAMS 37 was outdated. It was gradually withdrawn from front line duties in the mid-to-late 1930s, and when World War II started in September 1939, the aircraft had been relegated to training and communication roles. About 60 were still flying at the start of WWII. Some trainers remained in use after the Armistice with a single example joining the Free French Navy in Tahiti and even and with a Vichy France unit in Indochina until 1942. Some examples were reportedly sold to the aeroclub of Martinique

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: VG+

Sold   

2005 reissue of the this 1962 masterpiece. In the early 1960s Monogram invested in a series of huge 1/8 scale models with extraordinary detail and working features.
