Aurora Piasecki H-21 Work Horse, 1/49, 504-98
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
Sold
Third issue of this classic kit. The box is dated 1956 but you can see the new 'Famous Fighters' logo with the sunburst in the oval which would date this kit to 1957-59. Earlier in the 1950s a company called 'Helicopters for Industry' created a line of large early kits. In 1956 Aurora bought the molds and quickly reissued these models with new box artwork. Large kit features cockpit, spinning rotors, rotating wheels and opening doors. Molded in the correct gloss silver and clear plastic. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions.
Aurora Boeing B-29 Superfortress, 1/76, 372-259
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: NM
Sold
Rare 1956 issue with the square 'Northern Lights' logo and arguably the most dramatic and fanciful B-29 artwork from the "Golden Era" of modeling. This is the second issue of this kit. The box is in exceptional condition with brilliant colors and gloss. There are no split corner and no repairs. Light edge wear as the only flaw. Responding to market sources that boys wanted larger kits, Aurora introduced the B-26 followed by the B-29 and B-25, all of which sold well for many years. Never started and inventoried 100% complete with very high gloss silver parts, correct large 'Globe' two piece clear stand and correct decal sheet, mint condition instructions and even the original packing tissue paper.
