Lindberg Schooner Elsie - Gloucester Fisherman, 851

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good

$39   

Elsie was designed by Thomas F. McManus of Boston and built in Essex, Mass in 1910. The Elsie was not designed for racing but proved to be very fast and a serious competitor against larger racing schooners. The model is from quality ex-Pyro molds and is 10 inches long when assembled. Features full hull, display stand, many separately molded deck fittings, a full set of plastic sails, rigging thread and more. Molded in wood tan and white. Never started. The parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes instructions.

Rare 1950s kit for the advanced collector. This kit was issued after the demise of O-Lin, possibly in the 2nd or 3rd year that Paul Lindberg decided to go at it alone. This is the second part number used (400-29) and this became the standardized Lindberg system from here on out. Molded in gloss silver. The kit has never been started and is inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions present.

$44   

Mid 1950s first issue with wonderful Ray Gaedke artwork showing Lindberg's Ryan triumphantly flying over Paris. Nicely molded for that time in silver and clear plastic. Never started. Inventoried 100% complete including decals and instructions.

Lindberg Northrop SM-62 Snark Intercontinental Guided Missile, 1/48, 687

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good-

$54   

The Snark was America's first Intercontinental Cruise Missile. Maximum speed was 650 MPH and the range was 6000 miles; guidance was by an internal celestial system and the warhead was nuclear. SAC units operated Snark from 1958 to the early 1960s. This kit features mobile launching platform, detailed missile, stair lift check stand, tractor, jet engine and more. Never started and the parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes decals and instructions.

Lindberg 1930 Packard Sport Phaeton, 1/32, 6009-100

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good+

$40   

Very nicely detailed hardbox first issue from 1967 and an excellent effort from Lindberg. Lindberg designed this and a few others to compete with the famous Pyro 1/32 Vintage Car series, carefully choosing popular subjects that Pyro did not cover. With this kit, Lindberg exceeded Pyro's best efforts in this scale. The model features a full rolling chassis build just like the real car, detailed engine, complete exhaust, driveline, detailed front and rear suspension, full interior, removable hood, separately molded 'whitewall' inserts, rear trunk rack and more. Never started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes instructions.

Lindberg Jaguar XK 120 - Cellovision Issue, 1/32, 609-29

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good-

$38   

late 1950s Cellovision issue with great Ray Gaedke artwork. This XK 120 is molded in light blue and features a one-piece body (excellent for slot car conversion), windshield, chassis/underpan, steering wheel and four wheels/tires. While a simple kit, it does have very good interior and realistic lines. Never started. The actual car has been inventoried with all plastic parts and instructions present. NOTE: missing decals. The Cellovision window is intact and in 'very good' condition and the trading card is also 'very good.' The scale is not given; I have approximated it as 1/32. The actual model is 5.125 inches long.

Lindberg F-94C Starfire - First Logo Early Narrow Box Issue, 1/48, 519

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good-

$44   

Rare and very early 1950s issue and likely the first Lindberg release. Features the first Lindberg round logo with the correct very small and narrow hardbox. It is amazing that a 1/48 Starfire even fits in the box, but it does if you pack it very carefully. Molded in the correct gloss silver and clear and with the early Lindberg 'triangle' based two-piece display stand. Never started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions present. The decals are in remarkable 'near mint' condition and the instructions are 'very good.' The box is only 'good-' because of scuff and wear shown and also masking tape placed neatly on all four corners and an additional piece at the center of each long side.

Lindberg JN-4D Curtiss Jenny, 1/48, 534-98

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Exc++

$39   

1950s hardbox issue with beautiful artwork by the famous Ray Gaedke. The box has four solid corners and perfect color and gloss; the only flaws are very light general wear and a scuff & light crease on the lower long side. This was an excellent kit for that time and superior to the Aurora offering; the Lindberg model features a detailed engine with removable cowling, dual cockpit with instrument panels, rudder pedals, seats & control sticks, control horns & king posts, wheel chocks, full cockpit, two pilots, ground crewman, aircraft tail dolly and an illustrated rigging diagram on the back of the instructions. The model is molded in a stunning gloss yellow and clear. Never started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions.

Lindberg Amphibious Duck - Cellovision Issue, 1/76, 757

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Sealed Exc

$145   

Still factory sealed and a very rare kit from the late 1950s that has fantastic Ray Gaedke artwork of a beach landing scene. For some reason this kit almost never shows up and was issued only once or twice. Why is did not stay in the lineup is a mystery; perhaps the molds were damaged beyond repair. The model is large scale and well detailed for that time. The Cellovision box is in 'excellent' condition which is most unusual. These are thin and frail boxes which are easily damaged. This one has like-new color and gloss, no crushing or creasing, an intact plastic window still securely glued into place and all short end flaps in place and factory glued shut. The trading card on the back is in very good condition as well. Flaws include light age spotting, light general wear and a very small 1/2" x 3/8" litho tear on the back near the right short side.
