Aurora German Pfalz D-3 - (D-III), 1/48, 109-79
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed Mint
Sold
Still factory sealed and in remarkable 'Mint' condition. Features classic Jo Kotula artwork. The box is dated 1957 but this is roughly the third or fourth issue because of the simplified blue-border logo which means it is from about 1963/64. This is part of the famous Aurora WWI series of 1/48 scale aircraft. The series began in 1956 and Aurora added new kits into the early 1960s. The line proved incredibly popular, so these kits were included in the 'mold upgrade' in the 1970s before Aurora went out of business. Monogram even reissued a few of these kits after they purchased the Aurora molds in the late 1970s.

Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
Sold
Oeffag modified the German DIII design with a stronger airframe and engine, making a superior fighter to the German machine. When the Germans tried to upgrade to the DV, the Austro-Hungarian air arm did not need to. The plane performed very well against a numerically superior enemy and was a favorite and the mount of many of Austria's Aces. Has markings for Austria's leading ace with 35 victories, Godwin Brumowski. Large decal sheet also includes marking for his other Albatros and two other Austrian aces as well. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions.
Comet Boeing B-47 Stratojet, 1/205, PL-22
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
Sold
Rare kit from the 1950s. One-piece flip top box with early 39 cent price on the two short box sides. Nicely molded in glossy silver and clear plastic with all recessed panel lines. The aircraft is in the 'in flight' configuration and includes the Comet 'teardrop' based stand. The kit has never been started. Inventoried and NOTE: missing (1) of (2) engine pylons. Easily made. Otherwise complete with all other parts, decals and instructions present. The box is only 'good' because of general wear and two split corners which have been clear taped back together. Comet originally began model production in 1929 with a line of balsa flying models. In the mid-1950s Comet made a beautiful line of small and medium scale aircraft and missile models with colorful boxes. The early issues were in one-piece 'flip-top' boxes, and the later issues and releases were in standard two-piece 'hardboxes' with a lithograph slick glued to the top box. In 1963 Comet sold the plastic kit molds to Aurora, who reissued some but not all of the kits.
