Still factory 'round tape' sealed. Large kit with very highly detailed interior and extensive decals. The Type XXI U-Boats were the world's first true submarines; they could travel at high speeds for great distances underwater and attack without visual contact with the targets. The 'snort' allowed them to recharge the batteries and renew the air, eliminating the last needs for surfacing. A development of the Walther Peroxide Boats, the XXIs were seen as a faster way to put a more advanced submarine into service.

Rare, Pre 'S' issue dated 1955 and the first release of this superb model. Please note the deep blue background and stars next to the kit highlights near the box top bottom. The hardbox shows the storyboard history of the ship on the yellow side panels; this was not repeated on any other issue. Revell's early ship models were remarkably detailed and this kit is no exception When this kit was released, it was so far ahead of any other plastic model ship kit even considered that it remained a favorite for over three decades; even by today's standards it is of high quality. Features a full hull, all deck fittings, carriages and cannons on both decks, ship's boat with seats & oars, fife rails, all deadeyes & chainstays, multi-piece masts, Revell's famous preformed ratlines and much more. Includes a display stand, name plate, rigging instructions and even scale, full color flags from the Signal Code Of the US Navy 1864. Never started. The black parts are still sealed in the factory bag; the tan parts are not sealed and have been inventoried complete. Includes large-format, fold-out assembly & rigging instructions with a history of the ship, standing rigging material and even two small metal (plain; not decorated) tubes of unopened glue that are still in the factory sealed bag with the black parts.

This 'S' hardbox issue is dated 1956, but from the price extension of '349', it is most likely from about 1958/1959.

Rare true first issue of this kit dated 1959 and in exceptional condition inside and out. Large and highly detailed she measures 36 inches long when assembled. The box is not perfect but is among the better that I have ever seen. It has excellent color and gloss, zero price tags, no fading and no tape or tape marks other than the factory sealing tape. There is light general wear, the stain just above the 'Y' on the box top, a factory tape litho pull (1.25" x .5") on the top long side and 2 partially split corners. Amazingly, this kit is still 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 factory paint is in amazing 'near mint' condition. Since this is a first edition it also contains the booklet about the Cutty Sark. 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. Includes draftline and transom decals, figurehead, finely detailed hull, preformed ratlines and molded deadeyes, pin rails and blocks, full standing rigging instructions & diagrams, two thicknesses each of cotton cord for running & standing rigging and metal chain. Molded in three colors - black, ivory/white and dark swirl wood tan. The kit has never been started. Beside the hull, all parts are in the rare factory internal box which is almost never present. Even the original factory packing tissue is present. Inventoried with all parts, 'excellent++' condition decals, instructions and rigging plans present. Just an item of interest - if you have built this amazing kit, you know that often some of the incredibly fine parts are broken in shipment from the Revell factory. Well, that happened to this the original owner and he wrote Revell; and they sent him replacements! They are still in the original 'Revell' shipping box which cost 3 cents to mail. The parts are still inside in the factory bag. This kit must be shipped insured.
