Vintage Lited Piston Action Tin Toy USAF Fighter Plane By Showa Japan FS - 059
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:18297544 | Brand: showa |
Material: tin | Theme: Planes |
This is a rare 50s era tin fighter plane. It's in overall good shape for its age. It is still pretty solid. Nothing bent or loose.It has some lite rusting expected for a toy of this vintage. The axle is straight, but one of the wheels is a bit worn down. One of the 3 propellers is missing.
The plastic on one of the engines is chipped (see pictures) and the pistons do...n't move (but they might)The engine still lights up and you can hear the motor trying to move the wheels. I have no doubt, someone with skill and patience can make this plane "fly" again, if only to fly across the floor.
Bid now and help this plane to fly again
