Maircraft Curtiss SBC-3 Helldiver - Solid Wooden Aircraft Model, 1/48, H-5
Wood Model Kit, Box Condition: Good+
Sold
From the 1940s. Features color decals, 3D cut fuselage, nicely 2D cut wings and tail, printwood, fully formed wheels and excellent full-sized plans. Never started and complete. Maircraft was originally founded in the early or mid 1930s by Gordon Christoph and went by the name Aircraft Model Company. The company produced a typical line of solid 'profile cut' kits that required the usual high talent levels for carving and finishing. A former Comet Model Airplane & Supply Co. salesman, Jack Mair, bought the company in the early 1940s and renamed it Maircraft. This company was one of the handful of solid kit producers who issued models in a consistent 1/48 scale during the 1930s and 1940s (others included Hawk and Dyna-Model). This lead to one of the most desirable and rare model kits ever produced in the USA - the wood/plastic 1/48 United DC-3 model issued immediately after World War 2. Other than the P-61 and a few other Maircraft offerings, most were simple kits that sold for the low price of about 35 cents and gave the owners many hours of pleasurable work.

Contrail Vickers Armstrong Warwick, 1/72
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
Sold
Very rare and the only model ever made of this aircraft. Designed for Air Ministry specification B.1/35 for a two-engined heavy bomber, the Warwick was to replace the Wellington and used the same sturdy geodetic 'basket weave' construction. However, the prototype orders were canceled in 1936 to concentrate on four-engine bombers. Vickers completed two of the prototypes anyway. RAF Coastal Command liked what it saw and eventually 712 Warwicks were produced and used for transports, air-sea rescue, meteorological recon and anti-submarine work. One saw use as a BOAC Transport and the aircraft was used by the Air Forces of Poland and South Africa. The model features well molded vac parts with numerous injection molded details. Alternate parts are included to build prototype CIII, BI., ASR I, ASR (B Mod), GR V and GR II. With full decals for many aircraft including the BOAC version and large painting/markings guide sheet with many photos of actual aircraft. The kit has never been started. The small parts are still in the factory sealed bags; the larger parts were never factory sealed and have been inventoried complete. Please note that vacuform models are only recommended for those experienced with their constructions. Certain skills, including scratchbuilding, are required. They are not for beginners.
Monogram B-52 Stratofortress With Jet Sound - Vietnam Issue - With All Internal Packing Material And Seal Frame, 1/72, PA215
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good++
Sold
Rare 1969 issue has Vietnam-style boxart on a high-gloss box. It is even rarer to find this kit with all the cardboard and correct paperwork present. This is the 2nd release of this kit and the last with rare 'Jet Sound.' These models were designed with a major selling point - an internal parts display that could be seen by potential modelers at the store. While at your local hobby shop, you could lift the box top off and underneath was a fantastic display, all sealed by a yellow cardboard framed sheet of clear cellophane. This kit contains the yellow frame in 'good' condition and the cello is intact. Under the frame, all cardboard presentation is still 'near mint' and even includes the inner colored cardboard spacer. At this point (1969), Monogram had ceased making 'Monoglue', so the B-52 presentation cardboard usually had no glue; this one is no exception. Contains 207 parts. Very nicely detailed. Features crew of three, detailed cockpit, elevating and traversing rear turret, opening and closing bomb bay doors, operating wing flaps, operating spoilers, optional position entry hatch and landing gear, and optional parts to display one nacelle open to show the jet engine and of course battery-powered realistic Jet Sound. Molded in the correct dark green and clear. It has never been started. The metal and electrical hardware for "Jet Sounds" are still factory sealed. The other parts have been inventoried complete with decals, instructions, B-52 booklet and instructions present. Please NOTE that box displays better than the 'good++' rating but I graded it as such because there is tape residue on the bottom of the four side panels and has one closed split corner.
