Sorry for the confusion, I meant Shrike, whose first name is also Mark. Don

Who happens also to be a Mark, sorry for the confusion.

If you think this model looks like something that was designed, printed, and built circa 1950, that's exactly the effect I'm trying for.After designing this model (it resembles a 1950 Nash), I photocopied the parts onto red paper, cut out areas that were supposed to be other colors, glued the red parts over the master sheet, and photocopied it in color to get the multi-color printed effect. The parts were glued onto writing tablet cardboard, and the model was glued together.

You really hit the nail on the head as far as the 50's feel goes. It looks very much like a cereal box promo ( And I DO mean that in the best way possible)

This model is based on a 1956 Studebaker President sedan. I used the same design, printing, and construction methods as I used for the Nash look-alike.

Hello Mark:
My hope is that it is not to late to respond to your Built-Rite
quest. I am new to the net and just now, read your inquiry. I
also have been searching for Built-Rite (to replace long, lost
WW2-eara paper war-toys) and want to find Built-Rite #83 and
#84, The Weapons Carrier and The Armored Car.
Built Rite was a brand name used by Warren Paper Products, Lafayette, Indiana, until the 1950's. If you haven't already, (this reply
is 3 years late), check EBay's vintage toy lists. They offer many of their
old toy boxed games, puzzles, and cardboard toy-village sets.
Also visit "rodneysgallery.com" . I may not have the website name
completely right, but this is close.
If you ever find any of the Built-Rite WW2 Army vehicles, OR any parts thereof, please grab them for me!
Best Regards, Dave.

Hello Dave. My response to you is late, as well. I've been away from the forum for a while. I'm not sure if I still have it, but I had a cardboard olive drab jeep that is probably from World War Two, (see the previous page of this thread), and might be a Built Rite. I'll look for it, but I'm not guaranteeing anything.

Thanks for responding.
