C35 Strombecker Douglas DC-3 Flagship - American Airlines
Wood and Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
Before plastic kits were introduced, Strombecker was famous as the premier hardwood preshaped model manufacturer. In the 1940s and 1950s, Strombecker kits were flawlessly engineered but not inexpensive. All wooden parts are hardwood and are precarved to shape - usually only a quick sanding would finish them. This kit is hardwood with many plastic injection molded parts, so it was produced in the transition from wood to plastic. The model includes plastic detail parts, decals, glue and sandpaper. The carving is done to the final shape. When complete it makes an impressive desk top display. 10.5 inch wingspan. Never started. 100% complete with all parts, decals and detailed plans/instructions.
