StromBecker Boeing 314 Clipper - Pan Am, C6

Wood Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good+

Very rare. Most likely from the late 1930s. StromBecker was famous for their line of precarved hardwood kits and they are considered the finest ever made. The carving is done to the final shape which makes them remarkably pre-fabricated.

When built it makes an impressive desk top display. Never started It has been inventoried and NOTE: missing (2) of (4) standard nails that StromBecker included as propeller shafts.

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Sealed NM

Sold   

Still factory sealed. Nicely molded kit with all recessed panel lines. Includes decals for 201 through 205.

Revell Douglas AD-6 Skyraider - AH-1 Navy Attack Aircraft - 'S' Issue, 1/40, H269-198

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good

Sold   

Very rare original "S" kit from 1959. The box states "So Realistic It Does Everything But Fly!" and that is no idle boast. It is full of action features; the wings fold, dive brakes operate, arresting hook moves, canopy slides to show full cockpit, landing gear retracts and cowling comes off to show fully detailed engine. The most interesting thing is that the landing gear retracts and extends with a very complicated gear system that is operated from a central point. Molded in the correct gloss medium gray and clear plastic. Never started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. Decals are in amazing 'near mint' condition with slight yellowing as the only flaw and the instructions are in the same condition also. NOTE: push rods and 2 exhaust pieces are neatly broken off the engine; they are present so you can glue them back in place. This is typical for this model.
