Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
$28
Superb injection molded kit with plastic truck set. Very finely detailed with a high parts count for such a small model. While model aircraft mold makers and molding machine operators were claiming that you could not mold parts this fine, several model train companies, like E&B Valley, were busy proving them wrong. This is kit for the serious model railroader who demands prototype fidelity. Molded in black plastic. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes instructions. Please note that these E&B kits did not come with decals.

Aurora Martin B-26 Marauder, 1/46, 371-259
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good-
$225
Very rare first issue from the early 1950s. When Aurora moved to the West Hempstead plant, they planned a series of very large scale bombers. All kits released up to this time had been small. Aurora's instincts were correct, and the B-26, B-25 and B-29 were a big sales success. This box art was done by Jim Cox and was only used for about one year, making it very rare. The kit has never been started and is inventoried 100% complete with the original tissue paper, all parts, large clear stand, instructions and decals.

1955 hardbox design. Please note the early Aurora rectangular logo, which was used from about 1953 to 1955.

Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
$110
1960 issue of the rare "Whip Fly" series. The box is in rare 'excellent' collector condition. Hardbox artwork for this series was the 'action' photos by Tom Kelly. The kit has never been started. Inventoried complete with all aircraft parts, decals, instructions, metal ring, plastic handle, square of clay, 12' of line and plastic streamers. Like many other ideas, the Whip-Fly series seemed like a good idea...at first. The shortcomings were quickly revealed as energetic youngsters began spinning heavily weighted, pointed nose plastic aircraft inside and outside at speeds up to 45 mph. The series was quickly discontinued.
