'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.
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed Exc+

1953 issue that is still factory sealed. These kits were sealed in a unique way. First, Revell packed the parts into the lower box tray. Then they ran it through the sealing machine (without the top). Then the box top was installed. At the hobby shop, willing buyers could lift the top off and see what they were buying, yet the parts were protected from loss by the seal. Molded in the correct white, red and gold. Includes two highly detailed horses, harness material & real metal chains, hitch, carriage with frame detail, flexible hoses, two firefighters and a Dalmatian dog. Marlin first cut the molds in 1952 and issued the six original American Firefighters (Chemical and Ladder, Steamer, Hook and Ladder, Water Tower, Aerial Ladder and Hose Reel) in 1952. Revell signed a marketing agreement with Marlin in 1953. Five of the kit were released with the Revell name and marketing name 'Collectors Kits, Closter N.J.' Revell added the horse parts as they were not originally part of the Marlin issues. The kits made excellent display pieces, but they never caught the imagination of young men like jet aircraft did. The five molds were shipped to Brazil. After run for Kikoler (Revell Brazil's Distributor), they were shipped back to the USA but the molds were lost at sea. This issue is from when Revell still had the marketing agreement, as it says 'Trade Mark Copyright 1953 Marlin Toy Co. Inc' on the box top and 'Collector's Kits, Inc, Closter, N.J.' on the side.

Very rare and especially in this condition. First and only issue dated 1958 and from this amazing box art you can clearly see why these kits are so collectible. This example is in investment-grade 'near mint plus' condition with factory-new color and gloss, four solid corners, no creases, no stains, no tape (other than the factory tape), no writing, no tags and no tag marks. Flaws include very light and isolated wear and a tiny tape tear on the top long side from the factory sealing tape (measures about 3/8 x 1/4 inch). This kit uses modified 1956 molds from H232-89, the original S Skyhawk issue. Revell added two Bullpup Missiles (improperly labeled as 'Air-To-Air Missiles' on the box top), two missile trailers with towbars, four figures, three figure bases, weapons pylons, separate flap hinge covers and of course a completely new decal sheet. Molded in the correct gloss gray and clear.

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.

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.
