Cleaning Out Davy Jones' Locker...

[dto]

These are large format (approximately 12 x 17 inch book) paper models, mostly naval. Since they must be mailed via USPS Parcel Post instead of Media Mail, delivery will take 5-10 business days instead of the typical 3-day Priority Mail. As weight determines postage cost, most likely these lots will not be later compiled into Combo deals. Thus I decided to start a new thread. The original offerings (including Combos A and B) remain on the "Cleaning Out the Vault" thread: http://www.papermodelers.com/forum/s...out-vault.html

Lot LF13 -- "FOR PAPER MODEL HISTORIANS ONLY" -- $20.00

This is a lot of four vintage Wilhelmshaven models, printed in extra-large sheets (approximately 17 x 24 inches). I'm told this is the original printed size prior to reformatting to smaller sheets. The paper is dog-eared and slightly yellowed. The models are still buildable, but these are probably best used for other decorative purposes. (Although framing a Fairey Gannet as a work of art is admittedly in questionable taste!) ;-)

WM 1612 -- Fairey Gannet, 1:50 scale
WM 1805 -- Arado Ar 196A-3, 1:50 scale
WM 1807 -- Henschel Hs 123, 1:50 scale
WM -- whale processing ship WILLEM BARENDAZ II, 1:250 scale

PLUS, I'm including three rare H. G. Watkins ship models, circa 1976. They are still in fair condition, but should NOT be built due to their scarcity. These kits are for paper model historians who want examples of the "old days". These definitely lack today's "state of the art" accuracy and detail (one is printed on plain Manila card that must be hand-tinted gray), but Mr. Watkins' hand-drafted work should be remembered.

US Destroyer SIMS, 1942 (with names for MORRIS, WALKE, ROE and RUSSELL)
US Heavy Cruiser HOUSTON, 1943 (with names for NORTHAMPTON, CHICAGO and AUGUSTA)
US Navy Battleship NEW YORK, 1937

I literally rescued these kits from being tossed into a dumpster years ago, but can no long ensure their continued preservation. They await a new caretaker.

I would be interested int the Watkins models, but as I just purchased a 1:1 scale mixed media car and materials to repair a 1:1 scale house roof (that the original modeling crew couldn't figure out how to put on properly)…I'm a bit tapped….

Believe me, Armorman, I fully understand your situation! Good luck with the roof project.
