Aurora Gotha Bomber G-V - Abare Issue - (GV), 1/48, 126-198
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: NM+
$64
Ross Abare issue Gotha in amazing investment-grade, 'Near Mint' condition. Mr. Abare, a rare kits dealer in the earliest days of the hobby, contracted with Aurora to produce a copy of the original 1958 kit. However, Aurora had the printers use the mid 1960s oval logo without the 'Famous Fighters' in the border- thus forever separating the Abare issue from the original issue. Mr. Abare was reportedly quite upset, as he wanted exact copies. Molded in deep burgundy and black plastic. Never started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions.

Lufthansa was a pioneer in trans-oceanic mail services and the Do-15 and Do-18 grew to fit this need. Given the German interests in South America, it was no surprise that they established one of the first airmail services between Europe and that continent. This kit will build one of those aircraft, the Lufthansa South Atlantic Mail Aircraft (1938) D-AANE 'Zyklon' or the military version. The Do-18 was an improved D0-15 'Wal' and set several records during it's long useful life.

Glencoe USS Oregon Battleship BB-3 - (Indiana Class) - With Decals for USS Indiana (BB-1) / USS Massachusetts (BB-2), 1/225, 08301
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG
$89
From ex-ITC molds dating from about 1959/1960. Stirring Jack Leynnwood box art shows the ship at Santiago de Cuba in 1898 with the 13" guns blazing at the Spanish fleet. This is a large-scale, older kit that was well detailed for that time. Includes decals for all three early battleships. I highly recommend the superb Gold Medal Models USS Oregon Brass PE Set for this model (not included). The kit has never been started. The parts that were factory sealed are still in the sealed bags. The larger parts that were never factory sealed (hull and boat tree only) have been inventoried complete including decals and instructions.
