U614 Constructo Yacht Blue Goose - Highly Prefabricated 16.5 Inch Long Wooden Ship
Multimedia Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
And excellent model of a truly beautiful ship. These early Constructo ship kits are among my all time favorite models. Highly prefabricated wood and metal kit measures 16.5 inches long and 16 inches high when assembled. Constructo kits are among the finest of all the older prefabricated wooden ship kits. Features a completely shaped and sanded hardwood hull that is ready for painting and even has predrilled mast, bowsprit, anchor chain and pedestal mounting holes, finished hardwood display stand, finished and painted bow stand pedestal and rear hull mount, mounting nails, a large sheet of heavy cardboard with dozens of completely cut and finished and numbered hardwood parts held on with string, a factory sealed bag of fully finished fittings of metal, wood and plastic, numerous other hardwood parts completely cut to shape and numbered, deadeyes and blocks, paint, wood stock as required and a complete set of sewn, ready-to-install cloth sails, black and white standing and running rigging thread, detailed text instructions in English and Spanish and a full size plan sheet with many views, complete part identifications by number and excellent rigging diagrams. The kit has never been started. The actual ship is complete with all the small parts still in the factory sealed bags or factory-tied to the display piece. Only the hull was not factory sealed. NOTE: two container of paint are missing. Otherwise complete. With full size plans and instructions. Constructo kits were made in Spain and early issues in the USA were marketed by Constructo Nautical Miniatures, Inc, New York 1. There were many series of kits issues by size; some smaller and some larger than this kit.
