Back in the mid 60's, I discovered an ad for paper models in a modeling magazine. I believe the vendor was John Hathaway. The ad read, "Look closely, this model was made from paper" I don't remember what the model was, probably a ship or aircraft, but I was interested enough to send for his catalog and a couple of small models. He sold kits, mostly from Wilhelmshaven and Schreiber. I built some railway models in 1:250 and a mine sweeper. They look crude compared to what I do these days, but I was hooked. I built a lot of plastic models, even some stick and tissue aircraft, but I always come back to paper. There is a level of satisfaction here that I just don't find in any other medium.
