Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG
Very rare first release from 1958 and a one-owner kit; you would be the second owner. It came from a long-time collector and he received it for Christmas in 1958 or 1959; even the original gift tag is inside. Only this issue has these exact missiles; future issues would delete some missiles and add newer ones. This is an excellent model that features a total of 31 missiles, a large, clear display base, color cardstock 'Missile Arsenal' insert for the base with all missile names, special clear 'in flight' display stands for all cruise missiles, full color decals, scale figures and a special booklet called 'Know Your Missiles' with an introduction by the famous space scientist Willy Ley. Molded in the correct deep red, dark blue, white and clear plastic. The box has factory-new color and gloss, four solid original corners, no repairs and no price tags or tag marks. It is graded 'Very Good' because there is general corner, edge & shelf wear, a short piece of tape at the center of the top long box side and a short litho tear (from the thin factory sealing tape) in the same area. Never started. Inventoried 100% complete including all parts and the clear base & cardboard base insert in 'near mint++' condition. Includes decals, instructions and 'Know Your Missiles' booklet. The instructions are in 'near mint+' condition and the decals are in remarkable 'excellent+++' condition with a slight curl on both long sides. Please note that this kit must be shipped insured.
