Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
Rare 1955 issue. The box has excellent color and gloss, four solid corners and no fading, tears or price tags. The flaws are very light wear and very light age spotting. This excellent model; like all of the Miniature Masterpieces, it is a perfect example of the best early Mold-Makers art. Features medicine wagon with detailed suspension and open rear platform, colorful decals for Doctor Brown's Snake Oil, two horses, Dr. Brown, entertainer, an Indian, local man and a local woman with her young boy and girl. NOTE: this kit has minor and very neat 'professional' quality subassembly as follows: front axle assembly; rear axle assembly; horse halves. There is no other assembly and zero painting. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. 'Miniature Masterpieces' was formed through an alliance of Lew Glaser (Revell) and Steve Adams (Adams Action Models) in 1953. Although the molds were made at Adams and it had the appearance of an independent company, the firm was run by Revell down to the prototypes being made at the Revell plant. Originally there was no evidence of the parent company on the surface. The State Coach of England was the first kit, issued in 1953. More kits of excellent quality followed. Revell completely took over the line in 1954 and in that year and the next, kits were labeled 'Revell' with a 'Miniature Masterpiece' label on the box top also.
