Lindberg Douglas A4D-1 Skyhawk - (A-4), 1/48, 529-79
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good+
$52
Rare early issue of the Prototype Skyhawk from the mid 1950s. This is the smallest box that anyone has dared place a 1/48 scale A-4 in and the classic box art is by Ray Gaedeck Box. For some reason, this issue is rarer than the other Lindberg kits of that time. This model represents the very early Skyhawk, which is no surprise; Lindberg, like Aurora, often tried to be 'first to market' and did not hesitate to use prototypes for kits. Features detailed jet engine, opening inspection panel, pilot and ejection seat, opening canopy, full landing gear, centerline drop tank, wing rockets and display stand. Never started and inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions. The box is graded 'good+' because you can just see a very light stain on and below the drop tank.

The kit has never been started. Inventoried 100% complete including decals, flag sheet and instructions.

ITC Robert E Lee Mississippi Steamboat, 1/310, 3714
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
$68
Very well detailed smaller scale model that measures 11 inches long when assembled. From the quality and detail it looks like a reduced size version of either the large Revell or Pyro models. Never started. Inventoried complete with all parts, flags and instructions present. NOTE: there is some confusion about the scale of this kit, which is why I listed it as being about 11 inches long when built. The box lists 1/384 scale while it measures more of 1/310 scale.
