ship models published: SS United states, KMS Pinguin, t-2 tanker, USS Nautilus, several sailing vessels like yachts, HMS Bounty etc.

some scans are available on the internet, original copies of the Marabout Junior Series are still for sale on ebay, delcampe and other 2nd hand market sites
Wow! Thanks so much for the great information. Now I really want to go back in and make adjustments or start from scratch.
Neat idea of them to include a simple model with each story. Wonder if I can find any on the web? Am going to search!
Even kid’s stories can be fun to read as an adult. Still partial to the handful of “Tom Corbett-Space Cadet” books. The ebooks are always on my phone/pad.
