Ideal Aeroplane & Supply Supermarine S6B Racing Float Plane - 18 Inch Wingspan Flying Model plastic model kit

Ideal Aeroplane & Supply Supermarine S6B Racing Float Plane - 18 Inch Wingspan Flying Model

Wood Model Kit,   Box Condition: VG

Very rare kit from 1932. For the advanced collector. Any model from this era is desirable and this one is complete and never started. At this time balsa was gaining rapidly in popularity over hardwood and bamboo, but this kit was during that transition - it has both balsa and bamboo parts Features excellent full size plans, printwood, excellent factory carved prop, factory carved spinner, strip wood, two paper envelopes with smaller parts (one still stamped 'Supermarine'), balsa block and beautiful blue covering tissue. Complete and never started. The box says "Ideal" as shown but only on the end and says "Ideal Combination." It is the right size and color for Ideal boxes of that era, but it is a puzzle. I have never seen a box exactly like it before.
