1/96 H364-995 Revell Cutty Sark Clipper Ship - 3 Feet Long
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Fair
Rare first issue of this kit dated 1960. Large and highly detailed, measuring 36 inches long when built. This kit is the standard that other large-scale plastic sailing ships models are measured by. Since this is the first issue, the model has the factory painted copper hull below the waterline. The model features highly detailed deck, deck houses, cargo holds and removable covers, masts, yards and booms, bilge pump, windlass, 20 crew figure, lifeboats with oars, life preservers, anchors and anchor chains. With draftline and transom decals, figurehead, finely detailed hull, preformed ratlines and molded deadeyes, pin rails and blocks, full standing rigging instructions and diagrams and thread & chain for rigging. Molded in three colors - black, ivory/white and dark swirl wood tan. Inside, there has never been any assembly but NOTE: the bulwarks and outer raised white hull trim have been airbrushed white on both hull halves. While the work is neat (very good+ to excellent), there is white overspray on the factory copper paint. There is no other painting. The parts have been inventoried 100% complete and includes decals, color flag sheet, standing and running rigging line, chain and all assembly and rigging instructions. NOTE: the part numbers are off from the instruction book; I believe that the parts are from a later issue. I have also included a set of copied instructions that lines up perfectly with all of the part numbers on the trees.
