1/88 PL-5-29 Comet Douglas F4D Skyray
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
Rare kit from the 1950s. This is the two-piece box with an early 29 cent price extension. It is molded in glossy white and clear plastic. The kit has never been started. Inventoried 100% complete including decals and instructions. Comet originally began model production in 1929 with a line of balsa flying models. In the mid-1950s Comet made a beautiful line of small and medium scale aircraft and missile models with colorful boxes. The early issues were in one-piece 'flip-top' boxes, and the later issues and releases were in standard two-piece 'hardboxes' with a lithograph slick glued to the top box. In 1963 Comet sold the plastic kit molds to Aurora, who reissued some but not all of the kits.
