Re: 1/72nd Pewter spitfire

Interesting!

Found some info here: Avia Mini News

Looks like a little piece of diecast aviation history you got there...

Maybe one from the same series on ebay: Pewter SOPWITH CAMEL Model Airplane Franklin Mint 1988 - eBay (item 310069258070 end time Jul-27-08 07:19:02 PDT)

and another...

Pewter U S Airforce Prop Model Airplane Franklin Mint - eBay (item 310069338024 end time Jul-27-08 12:40:15 PDT)

Nice find Mapleflag! Looks like a fine model of the Spitfire prototype.

I don't know much about the Franklin Mint pewter models, but they did a 1/144 scale range too. I have the HP Halifax BIII and it's very well done.

Nice looking Spit. A all-gold Corgi P-51 will go nicely with it.
